Gordon Matta-Clark was a North American artist of Chilean descent who
explored various forms of architectural intervention. Trained as an
architect, he is famous for his "building cuts" dating from the
seventies. Matta-Clark used his work to try to open a breach in the
capitalist system by questioning concepts such as private property,
speculation, privacy, poverty, neglect and isolation.

In 2011, art collector Harold Berg acquired the photographic archive on the
work of Matta-Clark from Florent Bex, director of the Internacional
Cultureel Centrum in Antwerp, and deposited it indefinitely with the MACBA
Foundation. With the incorporation of the 46 works from Berg's LATA
Collection, the MACBA Collection now has a total of 74 works by Matta-Clark.

context in which they met and how the footage, photographs and drawings
that he originally made as documentation have ended up becoming his body of
