Matthew Barney - Payer Sheet with the Wound and the Nail - Schaulager 2010

The accompanying book to the exhibition, which took place in 2010 at the Schaulager Basel, documents Matthew Barney's performance project DRAWING RESTRAINT, which he began in 1987. Barney's works are juxtaposed with selected groups of works on paper and paintings from the Northern Renaissance with Christian iconography.

Essays by exhibition curator Neville Wakefield and by Bodo Brinkmann, curator of old masters at the Kunstmuseum Basel, guide you through the exhibition concept. An in-depth conversation between British psychoanalyst and author Adam Phillips and Matthew Barney provides insight into the themes the artist deals with.
