By Way Of: Material and Motion in the Guggenheim Collection | The Guggenheim Museums and Foundation

 

One of the most prominent features of art from the late eighteenth century onwards, particularly after World War II, is artists’ tendency to evolve traditional artmaking methods outside the studio’s boundaries. This exhibition examines the ways in which contemporary artists enacted new ideas formed by the social and historical contexts of their time and pushed the boundaries of artmaking and materials as a result.

By Way Of offers a suite of works from the museum’s permanent collection inspired by the D.Daskalopoulos Collection Gift. Major artists from the Arte Povera movement of the 1960s and 1970s, like Jannis Kounellis and Mario Merz share the galleries with artists working today, such as Rashid Johnson, Mona Hatoum, and Senga Nengudi.

By Way Of: Material and Motion in the Guggenheim Collection is organized by Naomi Beckwith, Deputy Director and Jennifer and David Stockman Chief Curator.

Funding is generously provided by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum’s Collections Council.

 

전시보다는 공간 자체의 아름다움에 더 매료되는 미술관이라고 생각했고, 실제로도 추상예술 위주라 휙휙 보고 지나갔는데, 이 현대예술전시는 참 좋았다. 다양한 작가들이 다양한 소재로 표현하는 바가 좋았고 국현미 생각도 좀 나고~ 미국에서 폐플라스틱 사용 비율이 28.7%이고 폐플라스틱으로 작품을 하는 작가도 많다는 게 참 아이러니하고 재밌다. 이 재활용도 안하는 미친 나라에서!
