Art & Language
 
The Lisson Gallery online "Art & Language" website opens with two complex images of works which form part of an installation Homes from Homes. These works are compiled together in two wall-like ensembles. The surface of each image is a complex structure. The complexity is such as to attest to a narrative of projects and production. This surface is broken as the user enters the website through any of its individual icons. A complex set of pathways is then created. Through these pathways the user may remain within the structure or may exit and re-enter. Remaining within is also a form of re-entry. The structure is language-like and open. This is to say that an unrestricted set of autopoetic systems (self-reflexive and self-generating) may be produced from a limited (closed) set of images and texts. These systems connect to or generate narratives of artistic practice identified or identifiable with Art & Language, or they may connect to or generate things of which Art & Language has never dreamed.

Lisson Gallery presents online the new Art & Language web based index.
