Gregg Bordowitz: There: a Feeling

Camden Art Centre presents the first institutional solo exhibition in the UK by celebrated American artist, writer and activist Gregg Bordowitz (b. 1964, Brooklyn).

Spanning the breadth of Bordowitz’s practice, including video, installation, performance, poetry, and prints, There: a Feeling will centre around the artist’s enduring commitment to writing as an activity of thought, manifesting across various forms and modalities. In Bordowitz’s ongoing transdisciplinary project, words are gestures, are images, are letters.

There: a Feeling is the second chapter of a partner exhibition, Dort: ein Gefühl, on view at the Bonner Kunstverein, Germany until 2 February 2025.

Bordowitz has realised new site-specific works for Camden Art Centre, which will be grounded in the context of older pieces that draw heavily on lived experience. There: a Feeling, is a testament to survival, ordinary survival, if such a thing can be described. The artist’s growing body of work constitutes a vital and intimate historical testimony which, in his words, “combines daily quandaries with improvised compositions, together adding up, but never summing up, bits and pieces of a unified field. The singular proposition of an exhibition can only be experienced as qualities bursting upon qualities through overlapping episodes of attention, sensation, and perception”.

The exhibition has been conceived and developed in collaboration with Bonner Kunstverein.
