Instillation at David Zwirner

Questions for artist:

1. Referring to your most recent show at David Zwirner, how do you arrange your pieces and decide how to put them together?

2. How do you where to place text in your work? Does every drawing need text to go along with it? If not, how do you decide which ones need text?

3. How do you decide what to explain? What is giving too much information?

4. When deciding on text is there a method to the font you choose? Does the font chosen carry certain weight?

5. In an interview you did with Scott Campbell you talk about collaborating with your kid in the future. What role does collaboration play in your art now? Do you always collaborate with others or are there things you do on your own?

6. What about color in your work. What stays black and white and what gets colored? Is there a specific process to this decision?

7. In your interview with Scott Campbell you talk about subject matter and nothing being off limits. But what is too much? Can you over-do a subject? Is there a point when people stop caring about the same material?

Questions for Artist:

1. In your interview with BOMB magazine you talk about feminism is s funny thing. You describe feminists as a group of intellectuals and students who are not necessarily involved in the movement.

- What do you mean by this? Do you think they preach something and live by another set of values?

- Do you consider yourself to be a feminist?

2. You also say that your life has changed over the years and you do no think you can do performance because you do not want to lie.

-Do you not consider yourself a feminist anymore?

-If so, what made you change your beliefs?

3. In your film “Doggedness” you walk your husband on a leash through the streets of Vienna.

-What was the driving force behind this idea?

-Was your marriage an influence?
