Mineral Sources - Andy Goldsworthy, Michael Heizer, Nobuo Sekine, Alan Sonfist, Victor Vasarely.: Booth SC7, Showcase

For its first participation in Showcase (stand SC7), the gallery pays tribute to artists’ enduring fascination with stone.

“I sought to align the gallery’s program, comprising historical and seminal works from the postwar avant-gardes, with that of TEFAF, an event grounded in the long view of history. Our booth, dedicated to the mineral sources of sculpture, acknowledges the 7,000 years of history represented at the fair by evoking archaeological vestiges, ancient sculpture, and carved stone blocks from every period. As the original material of sculpture, stone is presented here as a raw substance. Through seminal works by European, American, and Asian artists associated with Land Art and Mono-ha. The historical significance and emotional resonance of these movements are confirmed fifty years after their creation.”
