TO TAKE THE PISS OUT OF ART AS IDEA Felix Vogel on “Conceptual Art and Christine Kozlov” at Raven Row, London
The historiography of conceptual art notoriously sidelines the contributions of women artists, and Christine Kozlov is a case in point. Having been at the center of the New York scene since the late 1960s, Kozlov withdrew from the art world around 1980 and subsequently slipped into relative obscurity, with no solo exhibitions staged in her lifetime. London’s Raven Row recently addressed this lacuna with the first comprehensive retrospective of Kozlov’s work, presenting almost her entire artistic output alongside a selection of artworks by her often more well-known contemporaries. But as Felix Vogel argues, what might have been a straightforward attempt to integrate Kozlov into the canon actually revealed her radically unique position within conceptualism.
