Collection |
Two of McCarthy's single-channel
video works have been in Moderna Museet's collection for several
years: Cultural
Soup (1987) and Family
Tyranny (1987), both made in collaboration with Mike
Kelley (b. 1954). In the spring of 2005, two additional
single-channel video works by McCarthy were brought into the
collection, Black
and White Tapes (1970-75) and Fresh
Acconci (1995, also made in collaboration with Mike
Kelley). These works were all acquired through Electronic Arts
Intermix. It is not a policy of Moderna Museet to buy works
from contemporary exhibitions that they organize, but the museum
does so when possible. Works commissioned by the museum for
exhibitions are considered an acquisition priority. |
