Dan Graham – Alteration to a Suburban House (1978/ 1992-)
Dan Graham’s models ‘Clinic for a Suburban Site’, 1978 and “Alteration to a Suburban House” (1978) are the culmination of his reflection on the post-war suburban American house. In these, unrealizable, projects the building’s interiors are exposed through a transparent sheet of glass and the back wall replaced by a mirror, which reflects not only the inhabitants, but also the outside street and the passer-by. In a parody of the elitist Modernist glass house, the American way of life is opened to scrutiny.
