Matthew Barney revisits a haunting memory of violence and spectacle in his first institutional show in Paris in over a decade
On 12 August 1978, when artist Matthew Barney was 11 years old, he – and a million other spectators across the– watched the live broadcast of a football game that would remain seared in the collective American memory. Jack Tatum, a defensive back for the Oakland Raiders, delivered an open-field hit on Darryl Stingley, a wide receiver for the New England Patriots. The impact left Stingley paralysed.
‘The extreme physical and psychological conditions of the game – which have been abstracted into my art practice since my earliest work – provide a context for this subject that is both retrospective and a new, direct engagement,’ Barney writes in a magazine that accompanies the exhibition.
In the new video, the performer embodying the professional football player Jack Tatum, who was known for his aggressive style and technique even before the impact, pounds unfired clay sculptures into the gallery’s walls, and drags them across the room, but his range of motion is restricted by a red velvet rope.
