The exhibition is titled after a work first presented at Sonnabend Gallery, which will be reinstalled for the exhibition: Where We Are Now (Who Are We Anyway?) consists of a plank of wood surrounded by stools, with the plank extending through an open window and becoming a diving board over the traffic below.
