Overview

Renée Green: Pacing explores the artist's two-year engagement with the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts at Harvard University, including her major exhibition Within Living Memory, and chronicles a series of Green's interlinked exhibitions and events that took place during that time period in Cambridge, US (Pacing); Toronto, Canada (Facing); Como, Italy (Tracing); Berlin, Germany (Placing); and Lisbon, Portugal (Spacing). Renée Green: Pacing puts these projects into dialog with extensive documentation of and critical responses to her exhibitions and public programs staged at the Carpenter Center between 2016 - 2018. In doing so, the publication focuses on questions of process across a network of histories and actions, dwelling in literature, poetry, mathematics, color, architecture, cinema, sound, voices, conversations, and written exchanges.Renée Green: Pacing features these works collected in Within Living Memory, including her new work Americas : Veritas (2018); commissioned by the Carpenter Center, Americas : Veritas is a short film inspired by materials found in Harvard libraries and archives, positioning Le Corbusier's Cambridge-situated Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts in dialogue with his Casa Curutchet, located in La Plata, Argentina, as the architect's only two built structures in the Americas. The book collects the scripts of Green's re- cent essay films ED/HF (2017), Walking in NYL (2016), and Begin Again, Begin Again (2015). Renée Green: Pacing advances new linkages between diverse international gures and sites, spanning Asia, Europe, North America, and South America, connecting Viennese émigré architect Rudolf M. Schindler, literary luminaries Gertrude Stein, Laura (Riding) Jackson, and Muriel Rukeyser, and polymaths and activists Albert Einstein, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Paul Robeson.In addition to a newly commissioned essay by art historian Gloria Sutton, and a new text by poet and scholar Fred Moten, Renée Green: Pacing brings together a series of never-before-published dialogs between the artist and a multidisciplinary group of leading practitioners including choreographer Yvonne Rainer, film and media scholar Nora Alter, and critic Mason Leaver-Yap. The publication will also collect recently published conversations with Nicholas Korody and William S. Smith, and an introduction by Carpenter Center director, Dan Byers.
