It’s like all collecting really, save for a certain spin that flipping through records, like files, puts on it. This spin is pushed into full play by Siemon Allen, who turns the imagery of record collecting into a lyrical form of archive building. His works take count of tracks and titles, performers and producers, labels and liner notes, scratches and grooves, design and color. And while there is a lot of information on display, we are also entreated to appreciate the structuring of the whole, as well as the ready made beauty of individual objects.
