Matthew Barney CREMASTER 3: Entered Novitiate 2002 C-print in artist’s acrylic frame. 54 x 44 in. (137.2 x 111.8 cm). Signed and dated “Matthew Barney 02” on the reverse of mount. This work is from an edition of six plus two artist’s proofs.
Provenance Barbara Gladstone Gallery, New York Literature N. Spector and Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, eds., Matthey Barney: The Cremaster Cycle, New York, 2002, p. 512 Catalogue Essay Desires fulminating in the unconscious are, according to Freud, archaic, magical, and immune to logic and history. Barney is at his best when the work neither explains nor illustrates, but presses its charged elements together in ways as inscrutable as those in one of Joseph Cornell’s boxes or the contents of one of Duchamp’s wily suitcases.
