Creative destructions
I noticed that destructions has been a theme for my art viewing recently
I saw this wonderful sculpture by Gustav Metzger at the Whitworth, Manchester entitled Flailing Trees
It is in the process of de constructing itself slowly over time
whereas, Aeneas Wilder’s Untitled # 155 at Yorkshire Sculpture Park will be kicked down at 4PM on Thursday 3 November 2011
and at the Mission Gallery blog you can see this wonderful video by Natalia Dias entitled Vida e Morte
In her upcoming show at Mission, from 3 to 31 October 2011, a video and installation, the viewer will be presented with the opportunity for a real-time experience of Vida e Morte “which expresses the brittle transience of life and its humble beauty, from the minute of its installation to its imminent end”. (I don’t think that means they will get an opportunity to actually live and die during the show.)
