Every Future Has a Price

Infotainment was a legendary appraisal of the East Village gallery scene of the 1980s. Organized by Anne Livet, in collaboration with artists and cofounders of the gallery Nature Morte, Peter Nagy and Alan Belcher, it argued for a generation of artists who adhered to neither neoexpressionism nor the Pictures Generation, but who instead imbued their content with social and philosophical resonance. Inheritors of 1960s conceptualism, these artists worked with increased stylization, appropriation and subversion of authorship. Jennifer Bolande, Sarah Charlesworth, Clegg & Guttman, Peter Halley, Steven Parrino, David Robbins, Laurie Simmons and Haim Steinbach were among those included. 'Every Future Has a Price: 30 Years after Infotainment' revisits the exhibition, expanding its context by including other artists such as Ashley Bickerton, Jack Goldstein, Group Material, Guerrilla Girls, Howard Halle, Walter Robinson, Cindy Sherman, James Welling and Christopher Wool.
