Gupta’s installations of stainless steel, for instance, are not just McCollum’s mass fabrications of ornament or machine component, anymore than they are earlier Minimalist tributes to modularity, or subsequent displays by Cady Noland of bulk commodities. There is room in there to discern other emphasis, other voices. It’s a sign of a tired critic (pace Saltz @ Venice this year) when everything starts to look the same or worse than yesteryear.
