The Third Mind: American Artists Contemplate Asia (Full Article)

By intermedia artist Jessica Higgins

I was invited by Alison Knowles, to the formal dinner on January 28th and cocktails on the 29th.

Of course I was thrilled to go, not only because the topic was of personal interest to me and to my own conceptual language, but I also felt honored to see so many of the faces I’d grown up seeing and relating to together or close by in the Guggenheim. The curator had a cozy alcove set aside for The Fluxus group of which I so fondly grew up experiencing around me in a childhood wildness to which I often refer now. The scope of the show is vast and brilliant, so for the purpose of expressing my views experientially I will contain them within that room and a few steps upward toward Larry Miller's work.
