In the early eighties, singer Karen Carpenter from dreamy LA duo The Carpenters passed away from complications due to anorexia. Kim Gordon, who was a huge fan of The Carpenters, then penned an open letter to the singer. “Through the years of The Carpenters’ TV specials I saw you change from the Innocent Oreo-cookie-and-milk-eyed girl next door to hollowed eyes and a lank body adrift on a candy-coloured stage set,” she wrote in the letter, which was printed in the biography Sonic Youth: Sensational Fix. “You and Richard, by the end, looked drugged – there’s so little energy. The words come out of the your mouth but your eyes say other things.” Make Your Own Life: Artists In and Out of Cologne - Museum of Contemporary Art - North Miami (MOCA), Miami, FL Monika Spruth Galerie, Cologne 1988 Ross, David and Jurgen Harten, American Art of the Late 80's: The Bi-national Sonic Youth etc.: Sensational Fix, una producción de Museion de Bolzano (Italia) y Life de Saint Nazaire (Francia) que yaha visitado laKunsthalle Dusseldorf y elMalmö Konsthall, explora temas como la rebelión adolescente, el género, la fama, la sexualidad y la moda, y constituye un cuestionamiento de las prácticas culturales dominantes, un encuentro entre lo underground y la cultura oficial de las cuatro últimas décadas.Changing Soil: Contemporary Landscape Painting (Za Fukei), Nagoya/Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Nagoya, Japan
