Overview
WENTRUP is pleased to present the first solo exhibition by Jesper Just at the gallery. The exhibition derives its title Continuous Monuments from a series of designs created in 1969 by the legendary Italian architects’ collective Superstudio. In the 1960s as steel and concrete boxes began to overrun the cities, Superstudio saw a need to ridicule this spreading of homogeneous modernistic architecture. They proposed that enormous mega structures would stretch out over the earth, across metropolises and pristine natural landscapes, even into outer space. Referring to the idea of Superstudio, Jesper Just created a site-specific installation made out of aluminum profiles to present a selection of video works.
