The exhibition at the Menil Drawing Institute reimagines the potential connections between the built environment and nature, while also addressing undercurrents of social unrest and ecological concerns.
Artists included in the exhibition were Alice Aycock, Beverly Buchanan, Mel Chin, Christo, Agnes Denes, Mary Beth Edelson, Barbara Chase-Riboud, Walter De Maria, Gray Foy, Jackie Ferrara, Michael Heizer, Will Insley, Richard Long, Robert Morris, Claes Oldenburg, Dennis Oppenheim, Marta Minujin, Michelle Stuart, Robert Rauschenberg, Robert Smithson.
Curated by Kelly Montana and Erica DiBenedetto.
"While Oldenburg quipped about being an architect, artist Will Insley gradually left his professional training in that field behind. Within just a couple of years of receiving his master’s degree in architecture from Harvard University, Insley opted to pursue more theoretically driven investigations of pure form and of enormous scale."
