A performative lecture by Rayyane Tabet Rayyane Tabet gives a performative lecture within 3,345 Postcards: An Untimely Conversation with Rayyane Tabet and Jay DeFeo. The site-responsive installation assembles two collections—the artist's own postcards and those of the late artist Jay DeFeo—into a new composition at the Wattis. Upon relocating to San Francisco in 2017, Tabet learned of the Jay DeFeo archives held by the Jay DeFeo Foundation in Berkeley. There, he began what would result in a decades-long research project and collaboration with the DeFeo Foundation to catalogue DeFeo's significant collection of postcards. During this process, Tabet discovered unexpected moments of symmetry between her collection and his own, fueling questions about artistic exchange and collaboration. Refreshments will be provided.
