With Personal Thanks To Their Contractual Thingness Gabriel Kuri

Using familiar materials such as receipts, newspaper, and plastic bags, Mexican-born, Los Angeles-based artist Gabriel Kuri (b. 1970) is interested in the way that money mediates almost all human relationships. 

This publication accompanies his Aspen Art Museum exhibition Gabriel Kuri: With Personal Thanks To Their Contractual Thingness (December 20, 2014 – March 15, 2015) which comprised a selection of works that center on Kuri’s interest in the transactional residue of daily life and broad-based ideas of tracking systems in economics, politics, consumption and production. 

The catalog features essays by Daniel McClean and Heidi Zuckerman, as well as an interview between Kuri and Sofia Hernandez Chong Cuy.
