(via Klara Liden at Serpentine Gallery:
Blank white posters over street advertisements. I love how it’s such a different white from the walls; So much more coverup than ground. It feels like the advertisements are leaking into the gallery, the white is not really equipped to cover them up/ keep them covered/ cannot keep out ‘the real world’. But the advertisements do not so much leak their content, or their being advertisements, they leak their color and materiality. Which seems more interesting than the white on top. But they would not be so alluring if they would have been presented without the white cover, to contrast with.

so gonna copy this.
