Artist Jonathan Schipper’s time-based, kinetic installations reveal the otherwise unseen passing of time. Cubicle, Schipper’s most recent installation at Rice Gallery, was occupied by seemingly ordinary office objects, but over the two-month exhibition the space gradually self-destructed as it funneled into a small hole in the gallery wall. Schipper pays homage to the idea that destruction is a beautiful and necessary part of creativity. Watch the film: https://vimeo.com/201396420

I rarely enter juried shows, mostly because “good” art is such an ephemeral and subjective thing to classify. That being said, the topic on this show (sunsets and sunrises) was irresistible. I got two pieces in, and I’ll be there Friday night, after 6:30. It’s open ‘til 8pm that night. Come by and avoid the cold and chaos of the Crossroads.

Jonathan Schipper creates a new installation for his latest exhibition, Cubicle: an office setting that will undergo subtle, yet inescapable changes over the course of two months. It is a continuation of his work that includes The Slow Inevitable Death of American Muscle, in which two full-size automobiles crash into each other, simulating the force of a 30-mile-per-hour head-on collision, but over several days. The cubicle is meant to be a signifier of the not-too-distant past. Time has transformed the concept of the cubicle from a utopian vision of workplace comfort and privacy to an obsolescent remnant, giving way to the open office plan. Similarly, Schipper’s Cubicle will undergo mechanical stress for the duration of the exhibition.
