...The strivings of Thek, Bradford and others — artworks that deal with escape — get quite literally swallowed up by the show’s main draw: a work by Tony Feher. A ready-made minimalist who worked in trash, Feher died in 2016 and reinstallations of his work have been rare since. Flag’s floor-to-ceiling window has been coated in the intricate tessellations of blue painter’s tape (10 rolls’ worth) that he designed in 2015. They fragment and ripple out to the margins, soaking you — and the nearby artworks — in an invigorating glow of cobalt. You feel like a spider on a quivering surface.
