Picasso/ Braque 1989 created for the exhibition Our Literal Speed is a wall that is a sculpture that is a stage. As a wall it measures 12 feet high and the particular measurement is designed to reference the infamous Berlin Wall that came down in 1989. As a sculpture it brings together a kind of minimalist Moma inspired aesthetic along with the DYI aesthetic of Utopia Station from 2003. In 1989 a conference was convened at MOMA around the exhibition Picasso and Braque: Pioneering Cubism.the same day the Berlin wall came down. 2003 and 1989 then act as two temporal bookends that bracket a neo-conservative moment from Francis Fukyama's "End of History" to very dystopian invasion of Iraq in 2003. On the Moma side of the wll a video is projected of a performance by the German performance group the Jackson Pollock Bar in which the actors re-enact a discussion by the original panel members from the 1989 Moma symposium through a lip synced performance. The red banner is a re-creation/English translation of Slogan-1977, a work by the Moscow conceptualist art group Collective Actions.
