Explain Away:
ARTIST ROOMS is Crawley’s unilateral reading of the ARTIST ROOMS project devised by the art dealer Anthony d’offay and taken on by the TATE in 2008. In Crawley’s version a child’s door plaque is used baring the Artist’s first name with the intention that it may be placed on any given door to any given room. In the example illustrated we see the name plaque on the door of his rented lockup at Squirrel Storage, Leeds.
