Not exactly, Gordon. The photos are just documentation. The art is the physical building modifications. But that's not even all of his work. He did some crazy awesome stuff that had nothing to do with sawing houses in half too. So go look the man up STAT. Shame he died as young as he did. I'm sure he would have continued producing exciting art.

already looked him up, while it did look like most of his art involved cutting up buildings, there certainly is more to it than just that.

amazing ideas.

I'd not heard of Gordon Matta-Clark before.

This is fascinating..
