Provenance Metro Pictures, New York Exhibited Los Angeles, Museum of Contemporary Art, Pacific Design Center, MOCA Focus: Sterling Ruby SUPERMAX 2008, June 19- September 19, 2008 (another example exhibited) Literature P. Kaiser, ed., MOCA Focus: Sterling Ruby SUPERMAX 2008, exh. cat., Los Angeles, 2008, p. 106 (illustrated) Catalogue Essay "I definitely feel that ‘beauty’ is a contemporary question… It’s interesting to see how beauty is represented and how different takes on beauty can be so dichotomous and different. I like to think about art as being similar to poetry: it can’t be proven. It just exists and there’s an aura about it that people get or don’t get. Beauty has to do a lot with that."
