Schalter is pleased to announce Tomorrow, when no one is here, I will: The exhibition will present an installation incorporating over 1,000 post-it notes. Tomorrow, when no is here, I will: was created by Schalter founder Ryan Weber. The project is on view for one week.
Tomorrow, when no one is here, I will: presents the viewer with 1,000 post-it notes, each of which claims something that will happen on an unspecified “tomorrow” when no one is in the gallery. Each of the texts has been handwritten on canary-yellow post-it notes and pasted throughout the gallery. Not coincidentally, the opening also corresponds with both the start of the World Cup Tournament in South Africa, and the 6th Berlin Biennale.
Like the familiar philosophical riddle, “If a tree falls in the forest, no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” Tomorrow, when no on is here, I will: poses questions about the role of art and observation and continues a series of projects at Schalter, which explore and utilize the traditional boundaries and assumptions that animate notions of the gallery, exhibition, artist, and curator.
