More than a few artists I know made a pilgrimage to Germany to see the 2018-19 retrospective of the sculptor Cady Noland at the Museum of Modern Art in Frankfurt. Now you can see it in “The Clip-On Method” at Buchholz, a compact solo show that coincides with the release of a two-volume monograph of the same name edited by Noland and the art historian Rhea Anastas. Six new sculptures are here, all “Untitled” (2021) and employing well-known Noland vernaculars. Three works from the early 1990s are also included: enlarged black-and-white images taken from a police-patrol manual, annotated with anonymous handwritten text. (The cover of one of the two volumes of “The Clip-On Method” features an image of William Randolph Hearst, with an accompanying text that describes how he ushered in an era of yellow journalism and sensationalism.)
