“A Section of Now avoids the insult of didacticism; instead, visitors who see the show before it closes next May will be faced with the task of figuring out what it means for themselves. If this act of introspection forces a new lucidity, then the discomfort means the show is working.” A review of A Section of Now by Jack Murphy for Rice Design Alliance.
This week we traveled to Montréal to participate in the opening of A Section of Now, curated by Giovanna Borasi, at the Canadian Centre for Architecture. Here are some photos from our visit, with more documentation coming soon.
