Seller's Description:
VG. Size: 9.2 x 8 x 0.2 inches; Text free of underlining, writing and highlighting. Very nice clean copy. The Wexner Center has been distinguished among its peer institutions by one particular facet of its multidimensional profile? the Wexner Center Residency Awards given annually in the three broad disciplines of the center's program: exhibitions, performing arts, and film and video. The residencies are designed to provide artists with significant financial, technical, and professional support at a pivotal moment in their creative development, while also affording a receptive and engaging environment in which to pursue their further explorations. Maya Lin was the Wexner Center's visual artist in residence during 1992-93, and the stunning outcome of that experience was Groundswell, a permanent environmental sculpture situated on three levels of the building's exterior. To commemorate the dedication of Groundswell and to help further illuminate the singular yet richly nuanced artistic sensibility behind its creation, the Wexner Center organized a selected exhibition of Lin's work over the past decade. As its title, Public/ Private, suggests, the exhibition illustrates the unmistakable duality that drives Maya's creative pursuits and allows her exceptional talents to resonate and reverberate across two distinct disciplines. Groundswell has been likened by one observer to "gardens of glass, " an apt and poetic metaphor that alludes to other quite jarring juxtapositions inherent in this project: mundane, inorganic materials that evoke vast natural landscapes; crystalline shards of shattered safety glass that can virtually dissolve into glistening liquid pools; and gracefully undulating mounds that simultaneously recall Japanese rock gardens and native burial mounds in Ohio, merging Lin's eastern heritage with aspects of the midwestern landscape. The piece is at once seductive yet meant to be viewed from a certain remove? its public expression ultimately protects its private imperative. The exhibition Pub lie/Private further reveals Lin's prodigious talent in two distinct domains. In fact, she is one of the rare few who has managed to deftly forge a path as both artist and architect and to navigate in both realms with supreme clarity and dexterity. These two lines of inquiry may sometimes converge; at other times they remain in stark opposition. Although inextricably related, Lin's dual achievements? as artist and architect? ultimately stand on their own with absolute integrity. Her intimateJy scaled sculptural works assume formidable dimension in a public exhibition format, just as the more expansively scaled public works resolutely retain their aura of private contemplation. 39 pages.
