Specialist note

'...really important to us was the act of collaboration - or playing together - disrupting our respective ways of working, and experimenting with ideas and processes that our own bodies of work didn't really allow. So here, after working for a few weeks straight on this new work day and night, some surprising things have happened... this systematic and labor-intensive process didn't, contrary to what you assume, produce a homogenous group, but a bunch of very different paintings that are competitive and antagonistic to each other.'
(K. Walker and W. Guyton, quoted in Uncertain States of America: American Art in the 3rd Millennium, exh. cat., Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, Oslo 2005, p. 52).
