Red Grooms creates large-scale, interactive sculptural installations and mixed-media works saturated with cartoonish satire and vernacular Americana. Since the 1970s, his crowded, playful tableaux of urban life, most famously Ruckus Manhattan (1975), populate architectural spaces with life-sized wooden figures whose exaggeration and irreverence expose the grit and absurdity beneath everyday spectacle.
