antony gormley

Some pins by Sha Hwang a few weeks ago reminded me how much I love Antony Gormley's work.

"In a career spanning nearly 40 years, Antony Gormley has made sculpture that explores the relation of the human body to space at large, explicitly in large-scale installations like ANOTHER PLACE, DOMAIN FIELD, and INSIDE AUSTRALIA and implicitly in works such as CLEARING, BREATHING ROOM, and BLIND LIGHT, where the work becomes a frame through which the viewer becomes the viewed. By using his own existence as a test ground, Gormley's work transforms a site of subjective experience into one of collective projection." (more)
