Behind the Facts: Interfunktionen
Fundació Joan Miró
Parc de Montjuïc s/n
February 19–May 2, 2004
Curated by Gloria Moure
Structured around some of the most scrupulously unscrupulous projects highlighted in the twelve issues of the groundbreaking international journal Interfunktionen, this exhibition captures the enormous transformation of art that took place between 1966 and 1975 and crystallizes the exchange of ideas between Europe and the US in those years when both ends were burning. The one hundred works on view, by Günther Brus, Richard Long, Yvonne Rainer, and thirty-six other artists, were made during the journal’s run (though not all were featured in it) and were inspired by the events of the same period. The catalogue includes essays by, among others, Interfunktionen’s founding editor, Friedrich Heubach.
