Book excerpt: This distinctive book centers around an installation by Stephen Prina as a frame within which to explore themes vital to its making, including artistic production, site-specificity, curatorial practice, photography, architecture, and institutional critique. This multi-layered work is reevaluated by the curator, Jenelle Porter. She begins with Prina's single-image documentation of the 16-year exhibition schedule at the Heitzler Gallery (1975-1991). This final set of 163 photographs was then installed in the Heitzler Gallery, along with assorted elements as part of Prina's complete exhibition. Essays by James Meyer and Wilhelm Schurmann.
