Gabriel Kuri: Nobody Needs to Know the Price of Your Saab March 25, 2011

Over the past decade, Gabriel Kuri has concentrated on making sculptures and collages that zealously rummage through the detritus of material consumption. Both his objects and images are often created from the residue of monetary exchanges and the consumed goods that the artist collects on a daily basis. Kuri is a material archivist who extracts visual and linguistic value from the tracking systems, retail supplies, and trivial marketing mechanisms that constitute our daily lives.
