As a spatial marker, the term “no longer extant” is typically encountered as a label demarcating an artwork, document, object, or structure that no longer exists in its primary form. No Longer Extant focuses on artistic engagement with processes of structural demolition featuring video, installation, and sculptural works by Los Angeles-based artist Cayetano Ferrer and Mexico City/San Diego-based artist and MFA candidate Adela Goldbard. Both artists possess an acute conception of the built environment as subject to political, social, ecological, and temporal conditions while mediating the cycle of creation, expansion, and destruction in their respective practices.
