WHY OF LIFE



SUMMER PARTY: JUL 12

Two years after their successful show at P.S.1, Swiss artists Taiyo Onorato and Nico Krebs return to New York for a solo presentation of their latest work. Instead of traveling the American West to produce photographs on the road (as they did for Twilight Switch in 2006), the two artists deliberately escaped the buzz of the city for upstate New York. In the seclusion of a country house, they dreamed up a refreshing vision of a sculpture garden that riffs off academic tradition with ironic assemblages. In The Whole Shebang, seriousness is coruscated by whimsical humor.
