Roxy Paine “Farewell Transmission”
Paul Kasmin Gallery (297 10th Ave.)
This event has ended.
Paul Kasmin Gallery presents Farewell Transmission, a two-venue exhibition of recent sculpture by Roxy Paine. The exhibition will be spanning the galleries at 293 and 297 Tenth Avenue.
Over the past 25 years, Paine’s sculptures ruminate upon the clash of the human and the natural worlds, and the warring of chaos and control that result from humanity’s attempts to manage the process. Fusing organic forms, such as trees, flowers, and fungi with man-made structures and materials among which include stainless steel, epoxy, and polymer, Paine invents, distorts, surprises and confounds our perception of the natural and inorganic and the real and artificial. Farewell Transmission presents two distinct series, Dioramas and Dendroids; each expresses the artist’s anxieties about the human impact on our habitat and the mechanized tools that seek to impose order and control, often to disordered and unpredictable ends.
