Carey Young: Uncertain Contracts

RISD/RISD Museum
Carey Young: Uncertain Contracts
October 9, 2009 - April 18, 2010

Carey Young (British- American, b. 1970) explores current political, social and ethical issues by focusing on increased commercialization in both personal and public domains. Inspired by historical conceptual art movements and institutional critique strategies, this London- based artist investigates legal and corporate cultures, and appropriates their language in order to reveal their influence on our daily lives, as well as the art world. Commonly made through consultation and participation with various legal, sociological and corporate experts, Young's multidisciplinary works-videos, photography and installations- often depict the artist herself, and/or require the viewer's interaction. This exhibition features a selection of the artist's videos and works in other mediums, as well as her vinyl wall installation Declared Void (2005), recently acquired by the Museum.Carey Young: Uncertain Contracts
