MoCA L.I.ghts Artist – Marilyn Minter

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MoCA L.I.GHTS Announces

SMASH

Glass ceilings shatter with Marilyn Minter’s SMASH, coming to Patchogue November 5 – 8, 2020 

Patchogue Arts Council • Museum of Contemporary Art Long Island announce the inclusion of SMASH, by artist Marilyn Minter! 

Over the next weeks the Patchogue Arts Council will highlight each of the MoCA L.I.ghts Artchitecture installations that will be on view during the November 5 -8 programming! 

In just a few weeks, the work of internationally acclaimed artist Marilyn Minter will flood the facade of the historical Industrial Coverage Corp. located at 62 South Ocean Ave. and Church Street, Patchogue. Minter’s works have been exhibited extensively worldwide, including solo museum exhibitions throughout the U.S., Spain, Germany, and in 2021 Minter’s new Bather series will be the subject of a solo exhibition at MOCO, Montpellier Contemporain, France. 

Utilizing projection mapping technology Marilyn Minter’s, SMASH, 2014 will be projected as a site-specific installation. This work will be mapped for the first time in its’ presentation for MoCA L.I.ghts 2020. This work is courtesy of the artist and Salon 94, NY. © Marilyn Minter. 

SMASH features a model/dancer’s feet, which have been tightly crammed into bejeweled heels. The model slowly and ominously destroys a glass pane separating the subject from the viewer as silver rain falls from above. Minter is known for critiquing the seeming perfection of the fashion industry. She gets almost uncomfortably close to her subjects, showing the point at which things start to break down.
