The Contemporary Arts Center Presents - Tony Feher: Re:Place
April 18, 2008 - October 4, 2008 |
Add to Itinerary |
Times: Thursday - Sunday 11:00 am - 4:00 pm; Closed on holidays
Location: The Contemporary Arts Center, 900 Camp St
Phone: (504) 528-3800
Admission: $5.00 General admission; $3.00 Students & Seniors; Free for CAC members
The CAC presents a new, site-specific work, Re:Place, by New York sculptor Tony Feher, made especially for the atrium of the building. The new work will remain on view for three months. Like much of Feher's art, the CAC project has been created using found materials, and it was developed in the form of a direct artistic response to the spaces, shapes, colors and materials of the building's entrance.
To create Re:Place, Feher acquired three dozen 2-liter bottles of Orange Crush and Sunkist orange-flavored soda, and had them positioned at midpoint along the atrium's main cross-beams on three levels. Although each beam holds only one bottle, the cumulative effect of the quantity of bottles across a large spatial volume is of a dappling of the color orange, which at various points during the day catches and/or reflects natural light. Tony Feher (b. 1956), one of the most respected American sculptors of his generation, began showing regularly at galleries in New York and Los Angeles during the early 1990s.
In recent years, he has had solo projects at, among others, the Hammer Museum at UCLA, Aspen Art Museum, and the Indianapolis Museum of Art, and one-person exhibitions at South Texas Art Museum in Corpus Christi, Texas, and Bard College Museum in Annandale-on-Hudson. He just recently held his first solo exhibition at Pace Wildenstein Gallery in New York. Feher's characteristic use of extremely humble materials, such as empty bottles, wire coat hangers, packing tape, and plastic bags, have made him one of the leading members of a group of mostly New York-based group of artists who have turned their backs on the highly materialistic art-making practices of the 1980s and 1990s.
In contrast to the abundance of sculpture made using expensive foundries and art fabricators, Feher's approach is heavily arrangement on arrangement, framing and context for its visual and conceptual impact. Tony Feher grew up in Corpus Christi, Texas and currently lives and works in New York City.
