Nathan Manuel & D. Billy

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Nathan Manuel & D.Billy manipulate found objects, images, and texts, and stage & record ridiculous situations to create very important artworks swathed in outdated pop-cultural and art-historical references, interwoven with half-baked conceptual and narrative threads, and rife with inside jokes and trivial amusements. Their exhibition, A History of Repeated Injuries and Usurpations, draws connections between the cities in which they have lived and worked--New York and Washington DC--and the city of Philadelphia, in which they have not.
