Less is More: Scott Carter

Scott Carter (MFA 2011) will stage an architectural intervention that deconstructs the form of the white cube by converting Gallery X into a temporary student lounge in Less is More. Carter has developed patterns for constructing iconic pieces of modernist furniture from cut drywall. In Less is More, he will slice into the walls of Gallery X, radically altering both the physical space and the use value of the gallery. In conversation with modernism and relational aesthetics, Less is More poses whether or not the gallery space can support meaningful social activity.
