Mark Leckey

BigBoxStatueAction Special 2011

12” dubplate record in lacquer box

35 x 35cm

Edition of 50

£175

 

For BigBoxStatueAction (2003-11), Mark Leckey places one of his Sound Systems ‘in conversation’ with Henry Moore’s Upright Motive No. 9 (1979). In a series of performances that will take place during his exhibition at the Serpentine, Leckey will play a sound piece created especially for the Moore sculpture in a bid to elicit a response and to coax it to reveal its ‘thoughts’. Leckey has produced a limited edition dubplate recording of this sound piece entitled BigBoxStatueAction Special (2011). Composed from sampled music, including drones and unearthly bass, the sound track establishes a dialogue with the scale and history of Henry Moore’s sculpture.
