About the show

Gretchen Bender Paul Heyer Willard Klein

MX gallery is pleased to present Expired Attachment, an exhibition examining the corrupted record and the expiration of media, heirlooms, and hand-me-downs. It is a suggestion that spirits, in the form of physical and digital data, inhabit our things and render our histories. And that our attempts to live on through our objects and records are not as vain as they are beyond our control. Just as cells mutate and images fade, our computers will break like our bodies-- but not without leaving a trace.

About MX Gallery

COVID laid bare existential issues of contemporary art at every tier. Nobody was safe, neither artists, gallerists, and organizers with extremely developed projects nor the scrappy younger cohort. In a rose-colored retrospect, we are trying to make sense of the confusion. Relationships are skewed, out of step with the rhythm of art history, and history at large.
