The original vertigo of aura grafted onto furniture has since, with art fair’s erosion of the distinction between art and decor, lost all meaning. This exhibition looks more art fair than interior design, like toadstools on a wall. What may be beleagueredly interesting about Pardo’s practice now - artists for decades attempt “meaning”’s destruction in an intellectual whack-a-mole - to consider here something inconsequential. The real exchange was ability for museums to now enhance their lobbies with a didactic.
