To Let Things Slide challenged the assigned fragility of artworks by treating art transportation in the same way one would the delivery of any other object. The exhibition comprised exclusively works sent to the gallery by standard post. Each piece was exhibited exactly as received, with no attempts made at restoration, even if self-evidently broken in transit. Despite our attempts to pretend otherwise, art does not and cannot exist in a vacuum. It does not exist outside history, and cannot be elevated entirely above its status as an object. To Let Things Slide directly confronted this fallacy. The artists explored a wide variety of themes, from the banality of postal deliveries to the enforced stasis of the artwork, bound by a shared acknowledgment that our treatment of artworks as precious objects outside their own history is itself a construction.
