Will Ryman "A New Beginning"
Marlborough Chelsea
This event has ended.
This exhibition of new sculpture by Will Ryman will be his second show at Marlborough Chelsea and follows the exhibition of his work The Bed this past spring at Charles Saatchi’s London gallery. The show will feature approximately 40 sculptures depicting large roses in shades of pink with garden detritus and multiple insects, with a distortion of scale that, according to the artist, reflects a rodent’s view of a New York City rose garden. The roses, ranging in height from two to almost seven feet, will be installed throughout the floor of the gallery. Viewers will be invited to walk through the clusters of blooms to discover each flower, which upon inspection does not resemble a "rose" so much as an abstract shape that recalls what is seen in nature: cliffs, canyons, valleys and mountain landscapes.
