This site and project space will feature artwork with social & sculptural concerns. New York--Newport--Berlin; here is the geography of theory. Wittgenstein built houses for intellects; Marie Curie wrung out washcloths full of radium. Poetry is found in fiberglas molds for sailboats, dies, & turbine engines. Work at the Living Room is for sale, and the space (in Newport) is open by appointment only. Thanks most recently to the artists and AC Project Space, Mark Patsfall Graphics, Inc., Momenta Art and Susan Inglett Gallery. Look for "Water" in the Fall of 2000. Call when you're in town or on-line.

These are drawings to become sculptures later, not more. You know that Cezanne, Van Gogh, Kandinsky, and after them many others were fighting with the "end" of painting. This was for me clear for years, and I'm not against painting, like I am against certain political facts. And I like to draw, as I like to clean the house. But the drawings will never satisfy me without the coming nearer to the "room": the room as cosmos, the room that we don't know what it is, the emptiness that makes us alive, which we fill with our imagination. I won't speak about the room because there is nothing to say about it... But there are places with "bodies." These bodies define the place. An empty place is not possible because there must be something around it to make it the place. Like you can never say there is an empty room in a house. The house is there, so emptiness is not possible. Barbara Westermann, Project Space Director
