A spokesperson says---
“...Bringing together work by nearly twenty artists across painting, sculpture, textile, photography and video, the exhibition considers method not simply as process but as a way of thinking. Its title, drawn from the Latin phrase for ‘mode of operating,’ reflects how an artist’s method becomes inseparable from meaning. Over time, recurring decisions, materials and forms of attention do more than produce an image or object. They establish a logic of their own. Modus Operandi brings together historically significant work by artists whose methods have shaped the course of their careers...
...Across the exhibition, method emerges as thought is made visible. The selected works exemplify the significance of conveying ideas through presence rather than explanation. Featured artists include El Anatsui, Radcliffe Bailey, Yoan Capote, Nick Cave, Mark Dion, Jannis Kounellis, Guillermo Kuitca, Wolfgang Laib, Amy Lincoln, Barry McGee, Meleko Mokgosi, Richard Mosse, Bruce Nauman, Elizabeth Neel, George Rickey, Faith Ringgold, Alexis Rockman, Susan Rothenberg and Rose B. Simpson..."
