Where: Museum of Contemporary Art
Date: 2008-05-02 10:00:00

Gordon Matta-Clark's 'You Are the Measure' is a full-scale retrospective of one of the key figures to emerge in the generation of artists that followed minimalism. During the brief but highly productive ten years that he worked as an artist, and even more so since his death at the age of 35, Gordon Matta-Clark has exerted a powerful fascination on artists and architects who know his work. Among the major works featured in the exhibition are sculptures made from his acclaimed architectural building cuts, as well as drawings, films, photographs and notebooks.
