Saucy and ironic, Sam Durant's works address utopias and their failures, crossing events from the recent American past to create relationships between the art historical, pop cultural, and political phenomena that have come to define popular culture over the past 35 years. Conceptually conceived, multimedia in practice, Durant's installations refer to such guiding figures as Robert Smithson, Mick Jagger, Neil Young, and Black Panther cofounder Huey Newton.

The Meeting House / Build Therefore Your Own World
Sam Durant
Durant’s The Meeting House (2016) was a public art project at The Old Manse, a National Historic Landmark built in 1770 and former home and gathering place for politicians, thinkers, and transcendentalists including Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel Hawthorne. The sister exhibition at Blum & Poe, Los Angeles in 2017, Build Therefore Your Own World, introduced new works that expanded upon Durant’s premise of the interdependence between transcendentalists, abolitionists, and African American writers of pre- and post-revolutionary America in the creation of American culture and identity.
