| From Couch Painting, 1969, of the proto-Jim Shaw-ish "Lord & Taylor" series, to "room construction" plans and more recent projects, this forty-year minisurvey operated as if another of the artist's notorious time capsules were finally opened. Here, Martha Temkin's study of interpretive conflicts at the Antietam National Battlefield Park and Laurie Burgess's analysis of levels of meaning within Arlington National Cemetery both call attention to the problem of "landscape freezing"--that is, attempts to treat landscapes as time capsules of selected moments in time. The dedication ceremony culminated with the burial of two time capsules commemorating the grand opening of the center; the capsules will be opened in 2053 and 2103. |
