Gordon Matta-Clark 戈登‧馬塔-克拉克

Gordon Matta-Clark (1943–-1978, United States) originally trained as an architect and became active in the conceptual and performance art scenes of 1970s New York. Believing that architecture reflects dominant social structures and thus is fertile ground for artist actions and interventions, Matta-Clark's practice of ’anarchitecture’ employed film, photography, and textual documentation to record and complement his large-scale architectural cuts in urban spaces, offering a language that could capture his physical and sculptural interventions in all their complexity.
