True Life
TRUE LIFE exhaustively documents Alex Da Corteâs relationship with the musician Eminem over four exhibitions. From Detroit to Cologne, morefrom an artist-run space to a major international museum, Eminem trails Da Corteâs work through his thirties, reappearing, evolving alongside America, explaining more of himself each time. Eminemâs place in culture and his role in Da Corteâs practice, as well as the larger story of American identity, is explored through recent and commissioned essays by Hilton Als, Charlie Fox, William Pym, Martine Syms and Moritz Wesseler, as well as manipulated found texts and an extensive Q&A with Danish filmmaker JĂžrgen Leth, whose 1982 work Andy Warhol âEating a Hamburgerâ strongly informs the discussion. TRUE LIFE is both an uncompromising reference book and a work of total fantasy, providing a key angle of approach to a vital American practice in the 21st century.
