#evahesse — Public Fediverse posts

Rocznica urodzin Evy Hesse (1936–1970), rzeźbiarki, która swoją niepokojącą, zmysłową sztuką wyznaczała nowe granice minimalizmu i abstrakcji. Słynęła z użycia lateksu i włókna szklanego, tworząc formy między trwałością a rozpadem.

"At this point, I feel a little guilty when people want to buy it. I think they know but I want to write them a letter and say it's not going to last. I am not sure what my stand on lasting really is. Part of me feels that it's superfluous and if I need to use rubber that is more important. Life doesn't last; art doesn't last." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eva_Hesse via #EvaHesse

Dear Friends,

A few months ago I went to see the restoration of Eva Hesse’s Expanded Expansion and was surprised by my own response. As some of you know, I spent a couple of years in the apartment where Eva Hesse once lived at 134 Bowery, dreaming up possibilities for what art could be and soaking in aspects of her spirit. More of that story is in my book, if you’re curious.
