Welcome to the opening of Material Shifts !

The exhibition that looks at sculpture as an act of translation. Traditionally, the notion of sculpture recalls a stable object rendered in a robust material: something frozen in time and space. Still, sculptural practices have always also retained a notion of “material shifts”: from mold to cast, from sketch to three-dimensional form, or from idea to physical realization.

The works in this exhibition highlight sculpture’s transitional qualities. Spanning from conceptually driven works to material explorations, installations that activate the spaces they inhabit, and existing objects repurposed as art, together they map sculpture as a field made vital through translation. Ideas from outside the field are used to dynamic effects, as objects slip from one state into another.

With: Olga Balema, Katinka Bock, Ludovica Carbotta, Rhea Dillon, Miho Dohi, Vincent Fecteau, Ane Mette Hol, Brad Kronz, Jean-Luc Moulène, Germain Ngoma, Kaare Ruud, Stein Rønning, Diane Simpson, Dima Srouji, Mungo Thomson
