DiggSpecific Object / David Platzker
| Specific Object / David Platzker a personal venture to aggregate interesting objects in any artistic medium and present them in a contained venue, as well as to present these objects – and additional objects of interest – online at www.specificobject.com
Specifically, Specific Object is an attempt to isolate distinct works of value – historically, monetarily and / or personally valuable – and show them in an isolated context without the artifice of visual confusion or clutter in hopes of allowing these works, or objects, their own place, space and time. The material to be shown will range from artists’ publications, ephemera, prints, multiples and other editions to literature, music / audio works and unique artworks of the contemporary world. In November 2004 Specific Object acquired the inventory of Barbara Moore’s bookstore Bound & Unbound. Through her bookshops Bound & Unbound and its predecessor Backworks, founded in 1976, Moore has been a seminal and innovative champion of artists working in alternative mediums. In February 2005 Specific Object launched the "Specific Object Publication of the Year Award", to annually recognize excellence in artists’ publication. |
