In Practice: Salim Green

About

Salim Green’s new on- and off-site commission for SculptureCenter continues his engagement with “Dark Forest Theory,” an idea that interplanetary civilizations hide from each other for self-preservation in order to prevent open conflict for resources. Using this concept as a model for relational politics and for Black experience, Green disperses an experimental “publication” made with a semi-anonymous group of collaborators across SculptureCenter’s institutional spaces and to locations throughout New York and the United States, offering hyper-contextual, intimate readings of his work within and without art spaces.
