Review
“[Felix] Gonzales-Torres's ‘Stacks’ or ‘Corner Pieces’ show up a whole network of hidden intimacy and feelings, pulses and fantasies. Similarly, Fareed Armaly beats Dan Graham at his own game of good intentions ...”

“Fareed Armaly constructs a kind of visual scaffolding wherein signs of the times and artistic references are blended. It is a triumph of the ‘timid energies’ so dear to Duchamp. Images, as they stand now, exist and are manipulated by current artists from Michael Asher to Fareed Armaly, taking in [Felix] Gonzales-Torres and Haha along the way, and ending up apparently deserted by the violent energy of style and signature.”
