“A Thunderbolt is about to rip into the
blanket of bland we call art shows.
Feverish action? Check. Dazzling Spectacle? Check. Devilish Fun? Check.
This haunting and visionary exhibition soars on the wings of untamed imagination.”
- Los Angeles Times
“This is powerful and propulsive ARTMAKING.”
- Artforum
“Thrilling moments of pure photography. Martin’s love for detail
and the photo’s visual beauty are transporting.”
- Benjamin Buchloh, New York
“HHHH
‘Tales from the West Side’ is a more thrilling, intelligent, morally
complex and masterfully crafted exhibition than any show in years.”
- Hans-Ulrich Obrist, London
“Two Thumbs all the way up!”
