The Assembly
by Alex Wisser
The idea was to take a pile of rubbish as they are often placed on the sidewalk, as a discrete and complete body of material for a work. What surprised me most that I found the works to unfold photographically rather than in a painterly manner and had more to do with the found nature of photographs rather than the abstract expressionist concerns of say Rauchenburg. I am hoping that the photographic documentation conveys this.
