●内容简介——

探索当代艺术家Carol Bove近期的雕塑创新。

Carol Bove：拼贴雕塑展示了这位当代艺术家过去五年的作品，以及她对二十世纪规模、颜色、材料和艺术传统的不断探索。

Bove近期的作品涉及到本世纪中期雕塑的概念性问题，如自发性、工业材料和绘画雕塑的潜力。然而，在这个熟悉的雕塑传统的空间里，Bove发现了新的方法，可以通往以前未知的地方。Bove的“拼贴雕塑”是由废金属和不锈钢制成的，这些金属和不锈钢经过精心加工，形成了蜿蜒的形状，并经常被涂漆。考虑到钢的坚硬，这件作品看起来几乎不可能柔软，好像钢可以变得像粘土一样柔韧。这些作品从小型基座雕塑到大型壮丽的构图。他对规模的兴趣，以及观众对艺术品的理解如何随背景而变化，都是通过纳什雕塑中心收藏的一些小作品来探索的。

Exploring the recent sculptural innovations of prominent contemporary artist Carol Bove.

Carol Bove: Collage Sculptures presents an extensive look into the contemporary artist’s work over the past five years and her ongoing exploration of scale, color, material, and artistic traditions of the twentieth century. 

Bove’s recent work engages the conceptual concerns of mid-century sculpture, such as spontaneity, industrial materials, and the potential of painted sculpture. However, within this space of familiar sculptural traditions, Bove has discovered new approaches that lead to places previously unknown. Bove’s “collage sculptures” are created from scrap metal and stainless steel that has been carefully worked into sinuous forms and are frequently painted. Considering the hard rigidity of the steel, the works possess an appearance of almost impossible softness, as if steel could become as pliable as clay. Such works range from small pedestal sculptures to large, imposing compositions. Bove’s interest in scale and how a viewer’s understanding of an artwork shifts depending on its context are explored through a selection of small works from the collection of the Nasher Sculpture Center.
