Sculptural: not sculpture

Lance Pearce, Untitled (2010), Photography.

Richard Serra, One Ton Prop (House of Cards) (1969) (refabricated 1986), Lead antimonoy, four plates.

'It does not cohere, is not fully constituted as a thing, an object. Insofar as it exists at all as a work, the One-Ton Prop exists only during the time for which it is set up. That it will eventually collapse is not its point; it is not simply a demonstration of entropy. Rather it shows us the entirely conditional nature of its existence, and it thereby denies the timelessness of art. It refuses, then, not only the classification sculpture but also the ideology by which art in our culture is consumed, the ideology of authenticity.'
