Lawrence Weiner is one of the foremost figures in Conceptual art, as made clear with the Whitney Museum of American Art’s 2007 retrospective of his work, AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE. For Tuesday Evenings, Weiner presents the work and ideas that have inspired and informed generations of artists and viewers since his 1968 Declaration of Intent: “(1) The artist may construct the piece. (2) The piece may be fabricated. (3) The piece may not be built.

Gene and Jerry Jones, owners of the Dallas Cowboys, are in conversation with the Modern’s chief curator, Michael Auping. When conceiving the new Cowboys Stadium, the Jones family sought to create more than a football stadium. The idea was to build a twenty-first-century coliseum that would engage not only sports, but architecture, design, technology, and art. One of the most exciting aspects of the building is its inclusion of a world-class collection of contemporary art, many of the works created specifically for the new building.

Spencer Finch has received critical acclaim for his work, which has been included in exhibitions spanning the globe, including an ongoing solo exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington DC; a 2007 solo exhibition, What Time Is It on the Sun at Mass MoCA in Massachusetts; As if the Sea Should Part and Show Another Sea, a 2009 solo exhibition at the Queensland Art Gallery in Brisbane, Australia; and was included in Daniel Birnbaum’s Making Worlds exhibition for the 2009 Venice Biennale.

This Tuesday Evenings presentation is a continuation of the dialogue Fisher and Colpitt have pursued since 2008, in conjunction with Colpitt’s analysis of Fisher’s work in the context of postmodernism.
