    The winnipeg free museum (2009–2010) was an impossible, dividual artists' project. If Museums are being built as walled inspiration, promising experience and claiming to face the (carceral/) future, would the non-built or dematerialized, situated within a ground-level local area network, draw different spaces through which to refract some present paradoxes among us?; to perform the idea of the counter/institutional and consider “the status of the Human and the subject and object of the Rights of Man”? Yes. &, no. Neither a museum without walls nor an image bank, the free museum became lines traced and shadows cast between white cubes, blue screens, black curtains, and warehouses; between audiences and artists; production and display. What remains is not a counter-example, but erased or absent muses as present s/objects at the threshold between the sacred and the profane.
