Oscar Tuazon: Die
The Power sTATIon
Text by kim west, Ariana reines, oscar Tuazon.
Seattle-born, paris-based artist oscar tuazon (born
1975) works in the overlap between architecture
and sculpture. His succinct structures evoke the
raw armature of buildings, using the conventional
construction materials of concrete, steel and wooden
beams to outline areas that viewers are invited to
move through. In this way, tuazon’s works—at once
forceful and subtle, monumental and discreet—
allow his audience to experience everyday space
as extraordinarily arbitrary in its divisions and
enclosures. Die documents the production of
tuazon’s 2011 site-specific installation for the
inaugural exhibition at the power Station, a new
venue for contemporary art in Dallas, texas. For
this installation, tuazon produced two works, “Die”
and “Dead Wrong.” these works are recorded in
black-and-white and color photographs, as well as
through sketches and plans. an essay by Kim West,
a poem by ariana reines and a text by tuazon meditate
on the broader implications of tuazon’s work.

Thomas Houseago
wALTher könIG, köLn
edited by Chiara Parisi, susanne Titz. Text by Georg
herold.
Los angeles–based thomas Houseago (born 1972)
draws reference to a multitude of styles such as Classicism,
Cubism and Futurism for his intentionally
clumsy forms, which are made out of plaster and
found materials instead of the traditional bronze or
marble. the large-scale structures included in this
monograph thus appear incongruously flimsy for
their size.
