Appreciating the Art of a Deal
But bargains weren’t the point at the “Meta-Monumental Garage Sale,” which opened Saturday on the second-floor atrium of the Museum of Modern Art’. It was the latest iteration of a performance piece that the artist Martha Rosler, 69, has been enacting for more than four decades, selling items donated by friends, family, colleagues and fans, as well as her own castoffs (including, rather memorably in the early ’70s, used diaphragms and her son’s baby shoes).
The aim was to create, as a news release for the event promised, “a lively space for exchange, not only for consumer goods but also for real and fictive narratives, ideas and interactions with the artist.”
Ms. Rosler, a no-nonsense woman with short gray hair and a taste for Yiddish, has long been interested in feminism and capitalism, chewing over these subjects in videos, photographs and written work. During the Vietnam War, Ms. Rosler inserted the war’s most chilling images into pages torn from “House Beautiful” magazine.
