Seven contemporary artists build upon Mike Kelley's titular concept, producing works that comment on lived experience within built environments

Nonmemory brings together works by Mike Kelley and a group of artists--Kelly Akashi, Meriem Bennani, Beatriz Cortez, Ra�l de Nieves, Olivia Erlanger, Lauren Halsey and Max Hooper Schneider--whose work similarly engages Kelley's titular concept: the 'non-memory' of the various institutional spaces or built environments he encountered in his life. Documenting the eponymous exhibition at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles in 2023-24, the book also features reproductions of important works by Kelley, his foundational essay, 'Architectural Non-memory Replaced with Psychic Reality, ' conversations with each artist, and a new text by exhibition curator and editor of the publication Jay Ezra Nayssan.
