ART | 'The Way Things Go'

by

The latest exhibition of the Memorial Art Gallery's three-year Media Arts Watch program is "Peter Fischli & David Weiss: The Way Things Go," a 1987 film and video installation newly acquired by the MAG. The Swiss art duo's multimedia work uses humor and humble materials. In this case, the film features a Rube Goldberg machine-esque, endless chain reaction of everyday objects in a warehouse, in which those objects seem to take on their own lives and personalities.

"The Way Things Go" remains on view at the MAG, 500 University Avenue, through Sunday, March 17, 2019. Wednesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and Thursday until 9 p.m. $6-$15, half-price on Thursdays after 5 p.m. 276-8900; mag.rochester.edu.
