William Spangenberg and Marshall Weber "Original Spin"
Munch Gallery
This event has ended.
William Spangenberg shows 14 pieces inspired by the Stations of the Cross and the later mythic tarot. Set in both bronze and clear colored resin, the sculptures offer variations over common belief, century old mysticism and a reinterpretation of the artist’s own subconscious narrative. Also from Spangenberg, a floor installation of silkscreened acetate imbedded in clear resin.
Marshall Weber presents a selection of his mono-print collage drawings; graphite or wax crayon rubbings. Through the rubbings he picks up impressions from public memorials and monuments, and de-/recomposes text, shapes and images. The artworks challenge the way we define our collective history.
Both artists re-work the perception of classical sculptures and monuments – what we choose to celebrate and honor, and how stories of both personal and public heroes and heroines are passed on from generation to generation.
