Artist
Sculpture
The sculptural works of artist Mark di Suvero are regarded as both crucial within the development of Abstract Expressionism as well as sculpture. Working largely with scrap metal, di Suvero takes his materials from damaged or demolished buildings to produce large-scale sculptures, often for public or outdoor spaces. His works function within a matrix of paradoxes: fragility and bulk, movement and rigidity and perspective and objectivity.
