Nonmemory: Mike Kelley with Kelly Akashi, Meriem Bennani, Beatriz Cortez, Raúl de Nieves, Olivia Erlanger, Lauren Halsey, Max Hooper Schneider

Sale price$45.00

‘Nonmemory’ brings together works by Mike Kelley and a group of artists—Kelly Akashi, Meriem Bennani, Beatriz Cortez, Raúl de Nieves, Olivia Erlanger, Lauren Halsey, and Max Hooper Schneider—whose work similarly engages Kelley’s titular concept: the ‘non-memory’ of the various institutional spaces or built environments he encountered in his life. Documenting the eponymous exhibition at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles in 2023–24, the book also features reproductions of important works by Kelley, his foundational essay, ‘Architectural Non-memory Replaced with Psychic Reality,’ conversations with each artist, and a new text by exhibition curator and editor of the publication Jay Ezra Nayssan.

The Artist

MIKE KELLEY

Mike Kelley is widely considered one of the most influential artists of our time. Originally from a suburb outside of Detroit, Kelley attended the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, before moving to Southern California in 1976 to study at California Institute of the Arts from which he received an MFA in 1978. The city of Los Angeles became his adopted home and the site of his prolific art practice. In much of his work, Kelley drew from a wide spectrum of high and low culture, and was known to scour flea markets for America’s cast-offs and leftovers. Mining the banal objects of everyday life, Kelley elevated these materials to question and dismantle Western conceptions of contemporary art and culture.
