Raed Yassin : The Best Of Sammy Clark
11 Jan-18 Feb 2011
Delfina Foundation
London SW1E 6DY
Overview
The Best of Sammy Clark (installation, 2008) is a tribute to Yassin’s fictive mentor, the eponymous Lebanese pop culture icon, and a contrived genealogy, which links the artist to the 1980s singer. The installation points at a representational rift between the lived experience and the normativity of its conventional forms of documentation (be it the family photograph or the news report), which Yassin addresses by inserting imagined memories to complete the ‘real’ story. The Best of Sammy Clark contemplates the erosion of memory and of narrative possibilities and explores the limitations of the artist’s memory apparatus through the lens of consumer culture and popular music.
