Ryan Trecartin: Site Visit

Thomas Miessgang,Ellen Blumenstein

Los Angeles-based artist Ryan Trecartin (born 1981), whom The New Yorker called the most consequential artist to have emerged since the 1980s, is best known for his highly stylized videos, often installed in special environments designed by his longtime collaborator, Lizzie Fitch, that draw on Internet and youth cultures, with characters and images that are familiar and utterly unfamiliar at the same time. Site Visit is published to accompany Trecartin’s exhibition at Berlin’s KW Institute for Contemporary Art, which includes a new multichannel film and site-specific installation designed with Fitch. The look and feel of the catalogue reflects the forceful, frenetic pace and complex layering of Trecartin’s movies, with lavish, full-bleed illustrations and dynamic typography. Also included in this volume is a conversation between Trecartin, Klaus Biesenbach, Stuart Comer and Laura Hoptman.
