Jennifer Marman Daniel Borins The Collaborationists

This publication of the Toronto-based duo is the most complete career overview to date. Featured are their signature sculptural and kinetic installations along with several smaller works that together form an experimental journey around the artists' ideas on modernist art. In particular, cool geometric minimalism is used as part of a strategy of critique within the context of the information age. References to Wikileaks, Google, electronic surveillance, and information suppression are dissimilated within works marked by bright colours, enchanting movements, and humour. It is possible to see this collaborative work as both a playful encounter and a relevant critique of the supposed utopia of total information access. Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins have collaborated since 2000. Their work has been exhibited at the National Gallery of Canada, Albright-Knox and elsewhere.0Exhibition: Travelling exhibition, Canada (2013-2016).
