New Tony Cragg Work at Lisson

Filed under: sculpture — Niall @ 7:26 pm

A new Tony Cragg sculpture from his current solo show at the Lisson Gallery. They have no title or media info on the site though it’s some sort of wood. Its quite an unusual piece for him. I can’t think of any other cube-like forms of his since his early stack pieces from the 70s.

Update: The gallery have added the following info about the piece:

WT (cube), 2008,wood, 123 x 120 x 114cm

Their site also has another image of the work from a different angle.

The chemical component in PVC that does not decompose in the consumer society’s throw-away goods, as well as a deep fascination with rubbish, led Gerd Rohling to refine things he found on the beach and create precious imitation glasses.

There’s a big collection of these currently on show at the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin.
