"As Long as It Lasts," at Marian Goodman Gallery, installation view with works, from left, by Gerhard Richter, Pierre Huyghe, William Kentridge, Thomas Struth and Olivier Babin
"As Long as It Lasts," a summer group show on the subject of impermanence and mortality curated by Tom Eccles, is ending Marian Goodman’s 2008/2009 season on a melancholy note. The show’s most haunting piece, Polish artist Artur Zmijewski’s tragic Karolina (2002), is a harrowing video portrait of a lovely 18-year-old girl with an unlikely case of advanced osteoporosis, a disease usually associated with old age.
