LIMITS and DEMONSTRATIONS
A Lula Chamberlain Retrospective.
Marking the first major public showcase of her work in over twenty years, this retrospective exhibition of work by pioneering installation artist Lula Chamberlain comprises a diagonal slice through time, place, and form. The pieces on display here were individually debuted over a period of thirty-five years, designed in Chamberlain's various homes and studios between her beloved Mexico City and her native Elizabethtown. They represent a range of scale and impact from the intimate warmth of `''Vertex Texture Fetch` '' to the infamous `''Visage`'', the latter of which requires a vertical clearance of over thirty feet. Yet these works share a confounding legacy: in each of their debut exhibitions, they were nearly impossible to install. Galleries and museums balked at the scale, power requirements, and highly-skilled labor involved in maintaining these works for display. Some of their debuts collapsed under the weight of logistics, only to be successfully executed much later. And so, just as they describe the outer limits of Chamberlain's range as an installation artist, the geographical edges and vertices of her itinerant home life, and the beginning and end of her distinguished career, the works on display here also trace the extremes of our capabilities and the frontiers of our patience as both viewers and exhibitors. Are we capable of viewing these works as they were meant to be viewed? Do we even want to be?

And just listen to the recordings, I guess?BOB: Let's try it out. I think you start in the middle.</poem> This installation pays hommage to '[https://enwww.wikipediaguggenheim.org/wiki/Nam_June_Paikartwork/ Nam June Paik's] "9536 Random Access"]'', originally displayed in 1963. "Random Access" , which asks the audience to compose a personal music piece by guiding a sound pick-up playback head across strips of magnetic tape audiotape on the wall.  <br />Lula Chamberlain's interpretation combines this concept of interaction with a "''Choose your own adventure"Your Own Adventure''-style narrative reminiscient of popularized by the author [[httpswikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Packard_Edward Packard (writer) |Edward Packard]]. The interactive audioplay is narrated by Lula herself. In parts (such as the various end points), the narrative diverges in irreconcilable ways, leaving the viewer to wonder whether what they just heard is factually true.
