Details
Internationally renowned artist Alyson Shotz is known for large-scale sculptures and installations like those on view in the Taubman's Atrium.
Shotz uses synthetic material—optical lenses, piano strings, beads, wire, monofilament, tractor trailer skin—and implements ideas of physical forces (weight, gravity, topography, light, and space) to investigate perception, boundaries, and fleeting phenomena.
Shotz’s work is included in numerous public collections, such as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, among others.
Come out to the Taubman for this special talk to learn more about her works currently on view, "Experiment in Gravity" and "A Moment in Time."This talk is free and welcoming to all. Registration is highly encouraged to reserve your seat.
