The Sun Does Not Move, Position 1–12, 2019 by R. H. Quaytman

  A series of twelve works published for the occasion of Triple Canopy’s 2018 and 2019 benefits, pictured below. For more information, please write to development@canopycanopycanopy.com. Triple Canopy is pleased to announce The Sun Does Not Move, Position 1–12, a series of twelve unique silk-screened prints by R. H. Quaytman, commissioned in 2018 to honor Maggie Nelson at our annual benefit, and printed on the occasion of our 2019 benefit, honoring Joan Jonas. Since 2001, Quaytman has structured presentations of her paintings as “chapters” of a continuously written (and rewritten) “book” that constitutes her oeuvre. In so doing, her work treats paintings as objects of discourse that directly engage with the ways in which the medium is produced, circulated, presented, and received by audiences. Quaytman’s series for Triple Canopy shares its name with an exhibition of her work at Muzeum Sztuki in Łódź, Poland: “The Sun Does Not Move, Chapter 35” (November 8, 2019–February 23, 2020). Th
