Jeffrey Gibson, BECAUSE ONCE YOU ENTER MY HOUSE, IT BECOMES OUR HOUSE
MONUMENTS NOW, Socrates Sculpture Park | Queens, NY 10 July 2020 - 14 March 2021 On view beginning Saturday, July 11, 2020, Jeffrey Gibson’s commission for the ‘MONUMENTS NOW‘ exhibition, ‘Because Once You Enter My House It Becomes Our House,’ serves as an homage to ingenuity of Indigenous North American peoples and cultures, to pre-Columbian Mississippian architecture, and to queer camp aesthetics. Gibson has designed the multi-tiered structure to reference the earthen architecture of the ancient metropolis of Cahokia, the largest city of the North American Indigenous Mississippian people at its height in the thirteenth century. The earth mound of the pre-Columbian ziggurat will, in Gibson’s multi-tiered monument, be represented with a plywood structure adorned with a vibrant surface of wheat-pasted posters integrating geometric designs inspired by the Serpent Mound located in Ohio, another monument of the Mississippi Valley, alongside texts that operate as activist slogans. Gibson curated Indigenous led performances to activate the structure over the course of the installation. -
