Mary Abbe at the Star Tribune shares her investigation into the thoughts and processes of the architects behind The Excavation of Zone 5.  See full article here.

“”Zone 5” is a curious, offbeat and unexpectedly engaging show that defies most notions about what a gallery will offer. None of the stuff appears to be for sale, but plenty of objects look like furniture or surreal art: nests of roots on tall tripods, a canvas “tapestry” studded with shimmery nails, a “porcupine” glove also bristling with nails, a chair with an inner-tube seat. In the middle stands a strange, 15-foot-long sculptural table. A 3-D collage with a red underside, the table has a top made from strips of wood and pieces of steel, a window, some ceramic tile, even a paint can and a bird’s nest or two. It’s flat enough to work on but fragile and irregular enough to be troublesome.”
