Ugo Rondinone: Moonrise Sculptures

May 17 - September 11, 2016 - Best known for his large-scale sculptures and installations, Ugo Rondinone works in a diverse range of media, including drawing, painting, photography, and video. Modeled in clay before being cast in aluminum and painted, the sculptures show the enduring marks of the artist’s hand. Rondinone has long been interested in the subject of time, and he represents it here by the relationship between moon, tide, and calendar: each of the twelve sculptures in the series was made in homage to the moon and is named after a month of the calendar year. Two of the twelve are on view here. These monumental visages, with playfully distorted faces that smile and grimace, convey a kind of uncanny romanticism, welcoming wonder and empathy in equal measure.
