MARTIN BECK
the particular way in which a thing exists
the particular way in which a thing exists is a composite definition of form and is the starting and end point of an exhibition and book that examines ten years of artmaking by Martin Beck. Contributors Peio Aguirre, Manuela Ammer, Michèle Thériault and Beck himself address how social and material relations are negotiated from an artistic point of view that engages with categories of display, exhibition, history and popular culture.
