Description
MacArthur Genius Grant recipient Tara Donovan's otherworldly sculptures have transfixed audiences for over a decade - taking mundane materials and through clever craftsmanship, ingenuity, and repeated manipulation, the artist builds large-scale works made of rubber bands, plastic tubing, and paper plates into objects that evoke the natural world or other organic material.
This volume - which accompanies a major retrospective - features an expansive selection of her most impressive and important works to date, spanning 10 years.
Curator Nora Burnett Abrams, along with a several other leading scholars of contemporary art, consider critical issues around this important artist work: issues related to labour and process, and the interplay between ethereality and monumentality, among other key themes.
The book looks at several major bodies of work realized in different formats and different settings, affording the reader a glimpse into the important themes and visual languages the artist continuously explores.
The book will also consider, importantly for the first time, the artist's sculptural wall works which shed light on her distinct and varied practice.
