Poststructuralism and Self-Censorship at Palais de Tokyo, Louise Darblay (ArtReview)

“Unfolding across the whole of the Palais de Tokyo, Echo. Reverb. Delay. is underpinned by a premise that feels both so evident and yet has rarely been articulated in an exhibition until now: that American artists (and the academia before them) have long absorbed, transformed and re-exported the ideas of French and francophone thinkers from the 1960s onwards, not only echoing but reshaping these ideas in the process. (Although one could argue Beckwith is here picking up where the 1977 Pompidou show Paris-New York, which traced similar transatlantic connections from early-twentieth century to the 1960s, left off.) Simply put, it’s a show about how the circulation of ideas can spark radical transformation.”
