Description

Naturally everyone immediately thinks in terms of contrast: Russian Ilya Kabakov versus American Richard Prince. But on closer inspection the two artists share common ground of explosive impact. They both consciously refer in their work to the systems and structures that have marked their lives, be it the omnipresence of the media in the Western world or the intricate ramifications of manipulating consciousness; they share the artistic strategy of locating reality through literary form; and they both have a penchant for collecting and classifying information. However, their ways part radically when it comes to their experience of public and private, collective and individual worlds. Although Ilya Kabakov now lives in the West, he is still “carrying Russia on his back,” as he says in his interview with Boris Groys. In past decades he invented his own medium—the Albums—for going public. In “his” kitchen in Moscow, he would slowly turn page after page for an audience alerted only by word of mouth. Now, as Robert Storr observes, he uses the art institutions of the West for similar purposes, still playing host and not guest. He gently leads us into what he calls his “total installations,” there allowing us to become insiders instead of outsiders.

By contrast, in Richard Prince’s pictorial and literary universe, we find ourselves gazing, as if from the outside, at what has been unwittingly etched upon our innermost being. Prince’s treatment of these images has incisively nourished the much vaunted crisis of authorship. In juxtaposing Prince and Kabakov, unexpected aspects of the flowing boundaries between the private self and the collective have been illuminated and defined. The Insert is by Tatsuo Miyajima.
