“I hope y’all see this show, but to clarify, it features the smallest pieces I have ever made, including engravings that are only 150 atoms thick.”
– Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, responding to Pace Gallery highlighting the large-scale installations on view at the Mexican-Canadian media artist’s SFMOMA solo show “Unstable Presence.” The microscopic piece in question, Babbage Nanopamphlets (2015), comprises 2 million nanopamphlets, each 150 atoms thick, printed in elemental gold.
