The exhibition 'Off the Wall' assembles an array of works dating from 1948 to the present day which, in various forms and using different media, displace the site of the artwork from an object to the body. Either as actions staged on the wall and the floor, or as images denoting the theatricality underlying the performative action and the ways in which artists stage the self, the works on view take art of the wall. Artists featured are Vito Acconci, Lynda Benglis, Jenny Holzer, Joan Jonas, Cindy Sherman, Ulay and many others.
