Andy Coolquitt “Somebody Place”
Lisa Cooley Fine Art
This event has ended.
Lisa Cooley opens the 2014 fall season with “somebody place,” Andy Coolquitt’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery. Over the last decade, Coolquitt has garnered international recognition for his use of sculpture as a means to highlight how humans relate to each other and to the spaces around them, how architecture, objects, and environment interact to manipulate space and dictate experience. Coolquitt specializes in the creation of objects and environments composed of urban flotsam and other peoples’ junk. Eclipsing existing models of economic, cultural or even aesthetic value, his empathetic reuse of found objects is not meant as a conversion of trash into treasure, but rather as an indexing of the irredeemable; the abandoned and the invalid; the wasted and the destroyed.
