Colter Jacobsen 20th January - 5th March 2011 Opening: Thursday 20th January 2011, 6.30 to 8.30 PM Tommaso Corvi-Mora is pleased to announce an exhibition of new work by San Francisco-based artist Colter Jacobsen. Colter Jacobsen has recently been awarded the 2010 SECA Art Award by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. "Something that I tell my students is to read it once, then if you have problems with it read it a second time. Then if you still have problems, get drunk and read it a third time with a glass of wine next to you and you might get something out of it, but always think about practice. The theory in the book is to make you live better and that's what, I think, all theory should do. It's about trying to show you certain ways of constructing reality. I'm not even saying finding (I'm using my words very carefully), but there are certain ways of constructing reality that help you to live better, there's no doubt about it. When i teach, that's what I show my students - to read all this stuff without a critical attitude. Theory is not the endpoint of work, it is work along the way to the work. To read it actively is just a process that will hopefully bring us to a less shadowed place." Felix Gonzalez-Torres: �tre un espion.
