Richard Hunt Framed and Extended

July 14 - October 30, 2016 - The exhibition explores three lesser-known but integral aspects of Hunt’s art—printmaking, small-scale sculpture and wall sculpture that share a vocabulary with the public commissions and express the same sense of lightness and vitality. The exhibition’s title, drawn from one of Hunt’s wall sculptures, testifies to the artist’s practice of sculpture as the three-dimensional counterpart to drawing.

The exhibition brings together some seventeen works that span Hunt’s career. These range from the bold, angular lines of his print Untitled and the sweeping, gestural combination of abstracted organic forms and hard-edged geometry in the freestanding Hybrid Form #3 to his Wall Piece Two and Wall Piece Seven and the recent freestanding Spiral Odyssey II.
