Terence Koh at Mary Boone

I’m guest blogging at Flavorwire this week so look for a few of my posts there. Today I write a few words and publish a few pics on Terence Koh’s exhibition nothingtoodoo. Check it out.

oddly un-opinionated article you wrote there.

Flavorwire isn’t a publication that publishes reviews. I didn’t mind this show though. It’s pretty traditional performance art but it at least looked good. Also, Koh isn’t as bullishly substance-less as he offen is, so I liked that too.

could the lack of “substance” be a purposeful theme employed to engage in discussion of the roles individuals are expected to play in western society. Like roles of a gay man, an artist, a canadian in america, and an …asianpunkboy?

Meeting dismissive attitudes with feigned vacuity is a social tactic that has happened throughout history.
