Abstract:

A commentary on Sam Durant's exhibition, shown as part of GI 2021: "Across multiple outdoor sites in the city, The Common Guild presents Sam Durant’s ‘Iconoclasm’ – a series of drawings depicting acts of destruction enacted upon public statues and monuments. Based on images gleaned from various historical and contemporary sources, including newspapers and television reports, Durant’s graphite drawings render moments of intense disruption and call on current debates about how we relate to symbols in public space."
