About the Item

Deep within the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore accessible only from the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive and after a three mile walk, the artists discovered a dead trees graveyard. The artists decided they wanted to experience the graveyard at sunset. The next day, as the sun was setting, they weren't' sure if they'd make it in time as the deep sand slowed their pace. Running with all their equipment for the last mile, the artists have one of the most uniquely spectacular views of the sand dunes at Lake Michigan as proof they made the graveyard before the sun set. The artists then used their original artists process, known as Metalagram®, to achieve the illusion of 3D on 2D aluminum sheet metal. This work was created at the intersection of art + science using old world techniques + 21st century technology. The artists created sculpturally in layers rendering the Metalagram® work to appear differently from 180 degree vantage points. At varying angles of incidence photons dance across the hand cut layered aluminum creating visual delights. This work was made in the artists' studio in the former Moross House Museum, the oldest brick dwelling in Detroit, MI, circa 1840.

Excerpt from the PACE Gallery Press materials: It is clear that Moix, a true Catalonian, has a rightful claim to the lineage that spawned the extraordinary draughtmanship of his Spanish predecessors- Goya and Picasso. “Part of the pleasure of this project on Quixote by Santi Moix is that it boldly closes the gap between writing and art, between the markmaking of the pen, the stylo, the etching tool, between the fiction of two absolutely distinct means of expression, and proposes instead a true imaginative domain in which unity is everything” – Adrian Dannati, 2008 Measurements: Frame: 22 x 27 x 1.5 inches Print: 19.5 x 25 inches Exhibition History: "Santi Moix: Don Quixote" at PACE prints from September 11 to October 4, 2008.
