4. Gordon Matta-Clark: Anarchitect at The Bronx Museum of the Arts

Over 100 artworks by Gordon Matta-Clark, an artist trained as an architect, are now on display at The Bronx Museum of the Arts in Gordon Matta-Clark: Anarchitect. The exhibit digs deep into Matta-Clark’s archives, presenting his work through images and film, and bringing to life his energy and enthusiasm.

A product of the 1960s, Matta-Clark has a particular interest in spaces that others believe to have no value, transforming the abandoned into thoughtful installations. On view are examples of his “monumental cuts, holes, apertures, and excisions” to abandoned buildings. The exhibit also explores his creative thought process during a period of great political unrest associated with the Vietnam war, as well as his concern for the homeless and his deep interest in community engagement.

Gordon Matta-Clark: Anarchitect will be on view until April 8th, 2018 at The Bronx Museum of the Arts, located on 1040 Grand Concourse.
