Academy Records, led by artist Stephen Lacy, provides a platform for live performance, recorded events, printed ephemera, and exhibitions. Lacy created his multimedia installation The Spectre, on view in the 2014 Biennial, from works made by and in dialogue with artist Matt Hanner (1971–2011), an artist who collaborated with Lacy. Comprised of recorded sound, photographs, a neon light sculpture, a wall drawing, and a 16-millimeter film (screening in the Film & Video Gallery, April 2–6), the project reflects on Hanner’s art while furthering Academy Records’ commitment to economical, do-it-yourself techniques and experimentation.
