Gordon Matta-Clark proclaimed that he inscribed himself into architecture: by drawing a line through buildings, he revealed and celebrated the negative spaces of the city.
Lisa Le Feuvre, curator of ‘Gordon Matta-Clark: The Space Between – Thinking Through Architecture’ and author of the accompanying publication, argues that fragmentary remains are as important as the original works, for they comprise precisely the negative spaces and gaps Matta-Clark was exploring.
