The desire to communicate might be considered one of the most powerful forces behind the production of art, but it is the fallibility of communication that provides the subject matter for Incommunicado. Including original artists’ pages and essays relating to communication breakdown in art, film, philosophy and literature, this catalogue delves into this rich area of research and uncovers its many manifestations: vocal, expressive, linguistic, technological, cultural and political. Includes an essay by the exhibition’s curator, Margot Heller, and an essay and selection of quotations by Tom McCarthy, in addition to a series of artists’ pages with contributions from Pavel Buchler, Phil Coy, Omer Fast, Christian Marclay, Smith / Stewart, Erika Tan and Lawrence Weiner. Also includes a short bibliography and a list of works in the exhibition. work
