Looking Back: Retrospectives
In its annual round-up frieze
asked critics and curators from around the world to choose what, and
who, they felt to be the most significant shows and artists of 2008:
EMERGING ARTISTS:
The
artist duo João Maria Gusmão & Pedro Paiva and the video artist
Marcellvs L. have constructed very singular artistic identities in
recent years. Given consistency and idiosyncratic qualities of their
practices, I have significant expectations for their future artistic
careers.
