Large and Flowing

















Here’s another really impressive artwork, a ribbon-like sculpture by Brazilian artist Iole de Freitas that fills a huge second story gallery and also flows outside the building walls as if they were not solid. Many of the artworks here are small and low tech, and you begin to wonder what’s so special about them, but this sculpture makes a huge statement, like a Richard Serra by a woman.
This sculpture is also a nice foil to some bright John McCracken sculptures that dot the exhibitions like jewels or geometric surfboards.
