Andrea Fraser: "The opening events planned for inSITE97 were more extensive and official than those of most contemporary art exhibitions. Central to those events were the speeches delivered by representatives of various sponsoring organizations and participants. Such speeches function primarily to integrate (if only symbolically) the groups and organizations represented through their common demonstration of support. My contribution to inSITE97 was to deliver the speech inaugurating the exhibition."
