🎂Happy Birthday Joel Shapiro Join us in celebrating the artist and his career, which spans over 45 years, 160 solo exhibitions, and more than 30 public commissions and work which can be found in the collections of the world's leading cultural institutions. Shapiro’s sculptures are characterized by their unique language of dynamic sculpture, often using simplified geometric forms to create works that move fluidly between figuration and pure abstraction. These works conjure Brancusi’s refined forms, Giacometti’s figures in motion, and David Smith’s late Cubis. As poet and MacArthur Fellow Peter Cole has written, they objectify “that feeling of particular poise – that sensation that one is, at the same time, stumbling and being uplifted.” Learn more about the artist and his illustrious career through the link in bio. – Installation view of Joel Shaprio at the Kasmin Sculpture Garden.
