Daniel Lefcourt

Breach of Contract Series (2006)
Exists as both censure and censorship (what's the difference between these?)
Referring to newspaper reports of a political scandal involving a misuse of funds.

The black slats and lines allude to obfuscation of the 'dark deeds' revealed through journalistic investigations.

Lefcourt: "If there is meaning provided by these artworks it is only in that they are signs of an absence - they are evidence of that which has been displaced, negated, substituted or denied."
