STANDARD (OSLO) is proud to present a group exhibition of works by gallery artists Tauba Auerbach, Nina Beier, Ann Cathrin November Høibo, Michaela Meise and Mari Slaattelid revolving around proxies and proximities.

Eight things that I am thinking of right now:

One.) How lions, even those that are made out of marble, are in need of care and consideration.

Two.) How a Polar Vortex can fracture.

Three.) 2-2.

Four.) How I am forgetting music that I own because the CDs have been stored in cardboard boxes for more than a decade.

Five.) How correct AC Benson was when claiming: "All the best stories in the world are but one story in reality, the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape."

Six.) How I do not understand this method attempting to quantify hierarchical clustering and how it reminds me of too much I do not understand:

Seven.) How to manage minutes.

Eight.) The Wednesday edition of the New York Times crosswords.
