Excerpts from the exquisitely designed artist's book, published by Dancing Foxes Press, appear throughout the exhibition. Most of the wall labels, for example, eschew interpretive descriptions of individual artworks and instead feature an apposite block quote from the book, and the entire voice-over script of the thirteen-minute film Configurations derives from the book. These piecemeal texts amplify the backstory but can't express how the book, as a whole, evocatively integrates the project's multitude of discursive registers. If the exhibition is like a partially completed jigsaw puzzle, then the book, with its imbricated layers of image and text, is an image of the completed puzzle.--Louis Bury Hyperallergic
