摘要

During the summer of 2013, an unconventional one-story building sat in the courtyard of Forest Houses, a low-income housing project in the South Bronx (Figures 1, 2). Its undefined structural type-two pavilions connected by a makeshift bridge-and utilitarian materials-plywood, blue tarp, and packing tape-gave the building a precarious and explicitly nonmonu-mental character. Yet it was titled Gramsci Monu- ment, and it was the fourth in a series of works by the Swiss artist Thomas Hirschhorn commemorating major Western writers and thinkers; the others celebrated were Baruch Spinoza, Gilles Deleuze, and George Bataille. The south building of the Gramsci Monument contained a newspaper office, a library of volumes by and about Gramsci, a radio station, a computer/Internet room, and a museum of letters, personal objects, and photographs of the Italian philosopher. A bar serving lunch and dinner, an artificial pond (called the pool/sculpture), a crafts workshop, and a lounge, where talks about philosophical topics were held each day, completed the monument on the north side of the bridge. As instructive as its program may sound, more important at the time was that the artist, Forest Houses residents, and visitors shared the production of its space. Building on recent interpretations of Henri Lefebvre's theorization of space, time, and the urban, which treat Lefebvre's work as a heterodox and open-ended Marxist proposal suitable for investigating the present, this essay argues that Hirschhorn challenged modern and postmodern expressions of monumentality. The sculptor critically engaged the Gramsci Monument with its context through the experiences shared by a "non-exclusive audience" (the residents of the public housing project and their neighbors) and the anticipation of its obsolescence. Ephemeral in nature-it lasted only for a summer-and contingent on the daily lives of its resident builders, workers, and visitors, the Gramsci Monument proposed a monumentality that built on the experience and memory of the site without usurping the potency of the everyday in negotiating public history.
