shifts in the context and presentation of felix gonzalez-torres's art really caught attention when david zwirner began to jointly represent the estate with fg-t's longtime dealer andrea rosen, and people roundly criticized a de-emphasis or even complete omission of references to his gay identity, or aids.
but a dramatic reconsideration of fg-t's work and legacy had already begun years earlier, in 2010, when elena filipovic brought in three artists to co-curate multiple, ever-changing versions of a retrospective at three european museums. the massive catalogue for specific objects without specific form, contains the longest discussion of change as a central element of felix's work, in a 20+ page conversation andrea rosen had with tino sehgal.
