Tongue and Groove: Moveable Sculptures
March 8, 2006- April 15, 2006
556 W 22nd St
In her first solo museum show in New York, Courtney Smith will present a series of sculptures covering her work from 2003 to the present. Smith's sculptural investigations begin with deconstructing furniture either by cutting, hinging and manipulating its parts to create a new order or by invading the host body with foreign elements which take over the original structure like a parasite. One set of work piles mountains of hard-edged modules onto furniture while another erases the surface through intricate carving. The exhibition also features Smith's collages and text based work.
The artist will be "in conversation" with curator, Manon Slome, on March 16 from 6:30 - 7.30. Wine reception to follow.
