One Day at a Time: Manny Farber and Termite Art
One Day at a Time: Manny Farber and Termite Art, is an ambitious exhibition inspired by American painter and film critic Manny Farber and his legendary underground essay “White Elephant Art vs. Termite Art” (1962). The exhibition is organized by Helen Molesworth and features approximately thirty artists and more than one hundred carefully selected works of painting, sculpture, photography, film, video, and sound dating from the 1950s to the present. One Day at a Time is conceived as a cross between a monographic exhibition and a group show—an experiment in exhibition-making in the spirit of Farber’s call for “termite art.” One Day at a Time: Manny Farber and Termite Art, will be on view until March 11, 2019 at the MOCA Grand.
