It was a favorite in the Met’s Pictures Generation show. And I liked her recent, similar show at Metro Pictures. But hey-ho, how awesome does Louise Lawler’s show at Sprüth Magers look??
I mean, I might have been content to stop at the enlarged-to-fit, distorted vinyl mural of the oblique view of Gerhard Richter’s Staffel. But not Lawler.
From now on, I think the question demanded of any installation should be, “Why are you taking the giant disco ball out?”
