 Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at UBC will introduce sev
 eral recent exhibitions in the U.S. and Europe\, as a way into a constellat
 ion of problems concerning the location of artistic practice. Lewitt's inte
 rest in cutting across existing\, sited infrastructures with translations o
 f their global standards suggests the question: how to unsettle those mater
 ial processes and relations whereby the grid prescribes a place in which a 
 grade describes a performance.</p><p>Sam Lewitt is a New York-based artist 
 whose recent solo exhibitions include the Swiss Institute\, New York (2016)
 \, Kunsthalle Basel (2016) and the Wattis Institute for Contemporary Art\, 
 San Francisco (2015). With Richard Birkett\, he organized the exhibition <e
 m>and Materials and Money and Crisis</em> at MUMOK\, Vienna (2013).</p><p>E
 vent is free and open to the public.</p><p>The Distinguished Visiting Artis
 t Program is made possible by the generous support of the Rennie Collection
 .</p><p>Selected writing by Sam Lewitt:</p><p><a href="https://ahva.cms.art
