anarchitect

gordon matta-clark, born into the new york art scene and a rather astounding biography,
including his godmother being Marcel Duchamp's wife? (I didn't know he had a wife..)
he started out of architecture school at Cornell and ended up in the stunning deconstruction of buildings
you can also watch his video work on Ubu


i have memories of my father showing me these images when I was young,
i am relieved to realize that they have not become more tangible with age but
are still absolutely mind blowing
