In the fall of 1993, James Meyer curated a group show entitled “What Happened to the Institutional Critique?” at American Fine Arts gallery in New York’s SoHo. Responding to “the generalization of the political” at the 1993 Whitney Biennial, Meyer gathered together an emerging generation of artists engaged in critical practices around institutions, including, but not limited to, museums. One of the key artists in Meyer’s show was Renée Green, whose work had also been included in the 1993 Whitney Biennial. At American Fine Arts, Green presented materials related to her project “Secret,” first realized earlier that year for the exhibition Projet Unité, one of the first major international group shows which sought to bring together artists working in a range of installation, performance and conceptual practices to create projects in Le Corbusier’s “semi-deserted” housing project, Unité d’habitation, in Firminy.
