"XXX GIRLFRIENDS: Colin Lowe and Roddy Thomson - A Relationship with the Sublime"
2002-03-08 until 2002-03-31
Hoxton Distillery
London, , UK United Kingdom

Far from the delusional fanaticism of having a good idea or the zeal with which a transcendent positivity could be indicated by its determination within the field of representation as its negative limit, Lowe and Thomson's work continues to engage the xxxxxx in a refreshing manner.

The glut of xxxxxx revolutionary spectators, lurking around galleries enthusing after art as a 'sign of history' xxxxxx stapled onto their terror of anonymity xxxxxx will be bereft of the illusional comfort of xxxxxxx commensurability in the apprehension of the unrepresentable xxxxxx at stake here. The commonness of man replaced by the commonality of art is finally replaced by the common which in this work is nothing other than phenomenal essence as the inadequancy of appearance to itself. IN OTHER WORDS MEETING UP WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND AT WHITECHAPEL ART GALLERY AND FINDING YOU HAVE TO TAKE OFF YOUR SHOES, YOU GO THE NEXT MONTH AND FIND YOU HAVE TO PAY!

Xxxxxx and xxxx xxxxxxxx (characters/objects) would be misconceived if one sought in their life/adventure the majesty of their production as a mediation of the boundless nature of life, xxxxx. This work has nothing to do with xrt? There is no xxxxxxxx between 'idea' and 'phenomena' here, in the imperial movement of reason to conceive of what it cannot conceive, namely xxxx and xxxxx. This would be akin to thinking one could 'think' the disordered exhuberance of sexual encounters as the sum total of P.O. Boxes listed in the back of 'Big and Bouncy'. OR SEX HAS STARTED TO BECOME A LITTLE TRYING.

Lowe and Thomson do not give us any positive entity vis-a-vis any consumable commonality of xxxxxxxxxx , seek no lessons for these signs are not metaphors; this is the enthusiastic inadequacy of xxxxxx displacement. Because there is no gap between producer and product (the 'work') Lowe and Thomson have not papered over the abyss between xxxxxx and xxxxxxxxx (their characters/objects and their lives , real and dis-asperational), rather the work stands in for the absence of any positivity per se - i.e. it is as real as them insofar as they are not 'real'? AND THEN AGAIN?

Lowe and Thomson both ARE and REVEAL that miserable little piece of the real that precludes illumination and stages all its xxxxxxxx/objects in a 40 watt darkness that brings none together via the success of the work to xxxxxxxxx portray its exterior. In short it and they are the displaceable positivity of xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx, the thing as the voided pure nothing of absolute negativity. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. The sublime as cold cutlet discomfort.xxxxxxx
