Joanne Tatham & Tom O´Sullivan: The Blacks
'The Blacks', 2002 is a new sculptural work by Joanne Tatham and Tom O'Sullivan commissioned by Cubitt. 'The Blacks' is both the title of the work and the work itself: a title, a label, a reading, a social indicator, a presentation, a construction… a description of the letters themselves and a theatrical design… an absurdly flamboyant non-sculpture sculpture. The title says here are the Blacks - and then here they are. Alongside 'The Blacks', a short play 'The Slapstick Mystics with Sticks', will be available in the gallery to take away. This work draws on the tradition of the irreverent allegorical folk play as a device to make contemporary conceptual art.
