My Barbarian's exhibition @theicala is featured in Artforum as one of Johanna Burton's best of 2022! "After some twenty years of tireless (and really fun) collaboration, the trio known as My Barbarian (Malik Gaines, Jade Gordon, and Alexandro Segade) put on a retrospective. Curated by Edwards for the Whitney and subsequently shown at the ICA LA, what could have been a sprawling affair (My Barbarian has made a lot of work) appears, at first glance, restrained, humbly occupying a single gallery. Evoking “poor theater”—and a whole ot of other theater and nontheater, too— the show smartly and pointedly drills down on quality over quantity, transforming the space into a frame that rigorously narrates twenty years of work, the world the work responds to, and the evolution not only of the artists but of their audiences, too."
