Robert Barry at Schindler Church

Robert Barry at Schindler Church

Wall text is awful, it is the domain of the advertorial, that assaultive violent realm reaching across space to clutch you and place its thought in your own. Advertising and Conceptual art's same concerns for tautology, non-sequitur and profoundly desensible statements. Slogans to pretty much wipe the brain. Here it is ethereally placed onto the walls of a modernist church which too advertised space. I like Robert Barry.
