[Virtual Conversation] Mungo Thomason and Tosh Berman
901 East 3rd St. Los Angeles, CA 90013
Saturday, August 15 at 3:00 PM 4:00 PM
Ends Aug 15, 2020
Join Artbook @ Hauser & Wirth LA Bookstore and Inventory Press for a live stream event with artist Mungo Thomason in conversation with Tosh Berman for Mail. Mungo Thomson asked The Hammer Museum in Los Angeles to forward all incoming mail to a gallery, where it accumulated unopened during the 4-month run of the 2018 exhibition, Stories For Almost Everyone. Thomson’s publication Mail is a temporary archive of one museum's incoming mail. The publication is an homage to a shipping product catalog. In a time of pandemic and onslaught of privatization of the public sphere and the nation's public land, our event celebrates The United States Postal Service, which is on the frontline for democracy. We pay homage to mail art, which through the international postal service was, and is, the outlet for sharing art in a parallel universe to the Art Industry.
