The term “anti-form” in the 1960s represented the abandonment of the traditional concept of art and sculpture.

Progress takes precedent over contemplation and experience, and we are acute to symbols rather than with what they signify. If the notion of progress is eliminated, what becomes of [...]

Leah Bailis changed up her art significantly in her last solo show at Vox Populi.  From sculptures of forlorn and fragile architectural fragments, her show Magical Thinking was a mix of photos,  sculpture, and wall works whose focus was on forlorn and macabre relationships taken from the cinema.  We met Leah in her studio to [...]

Aaron Finnis Work from his oeuvre. “… Aaron’s installations explore concepts of reality, illusion, perception, and deception using the dissonance between the tape sculptures’ similarity in appearance and their assumption of real form through light.

Internationally renowned Danish artist Jeppe Hein develops sculptures and installations reminiscent of Minimal Art with which he responds to the spatial and site-specific structures of exhibition locations. The relationship of the individual to his surroundings and the psychological reaction to spatial changes stand at the center of his works

I guess you could say my thesis came to me in the guise of an email from one of my favorite galleries in Chicago, the Catherine Edelman Gallery. There was an invitation to an opening for Chicago photographer, Elizabeth Ernst. After looking at her work on their website, I knew I had to attend with [...]

By enlarging the scale and focusing on details of their shape and surface, her work engages the viewer with the sculptural aspects of these everyday forms. Friedman explores the textural qualities of the materials that she uses and sets them up to create unexpected dialogs between viewer and object.
