White Flag

2009 Exhibition Catalogue at FUCKTHATGALLERY

White Flag is a fraught ambiguous thing, at once object and history, public icon, toss away and secret diary, in LG Williams' revelatory masterpiece taped up - or is the right word "made"? - in 2009. It is an artwork that is also a sculpture. At first, what you see is simple: a Hefty(R) Tall Kitchen Garbage Bag. Look closer - and this is, profoundly, a work of art to experience in itself. In the original - owned by FUCKTHATGALLERY(TM) since the fucking 2009 - you start to see the nuances of plastic. Williams made White Flag using a method, an ancient tape art method from Prehistoric Cave Art.
