APOCOCROPOLIS

CIVILIZATION AND THE TRIUMPH OF FAILURE PART I…
TO BE CONTINUED

JEREMY LOVITT / ISAAC SPRACHMAN

Curated by Jason Goodman

APOCOCROPOLIS is a multimedia sculpture installation and post-emotional habitat conjured by Brooklyn-based artists Jeremy Lovitt and Isaac Sprachman.  In their first collaboration ever, the artists exploit video and construction materials to erect a monolith which salutes the notion that "enough is never enough" or “what have I done to deserve this?”.

The materials of this monumental art-altar, metal studs and sheet rock, are the same materials used to create the temporary interior partitions so common of the buildings of the Chelsea art gallery district. Quick and cheap to erect, quick and cheap to tear down and put in the dumpster with the ever shifting sands of the real estate market manipulations.  The utilization of these materials by Mr. Lovitt and Mr. Sprachman comment - ever so gently - on the forcefully unavoidable cyclical migration of artistic centers at once regaling the viewer with a new sensation of archeological discovery.
