Indepth Arts News: "A Series of 'Nows': Thomas Lendvai" 2005-01-07 until 2005-02-07 Plus Ultra Gallery Brooklyn, NY, USA United States of America
Referencing the notion that there is no perceptible past or present, only a series of "nows," Lendvai's installation, although obviously constructed right out of the walls with heavy-duty timber, gives viewers the impression that should they come back five minutes later it will be in a different position. This sense of movement is enhanced by the way that the installation is subtlety activated by the viewer - each vantage point changes the relationships of the beams to the floor and walls (near the front of the gallery the beams are well above the viewer's head, near the back one must enter the work to stand up fully) - heightening the expectation of what part of the "other building" one might see next.
