Simcha Even-Chen
Entrapped 7 by Simcha Even-Chen - Porcelain sculpture, yellow & white, organic

2024

About the Item

Entrapped 7 is a unique paper porcelain sculpture by contemporary artist Simcha Even-Chen, dimensions are 30 × 30 × 24 cm (11.8 × 11.8 × 9.4 in). The sculpture is signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity. This sculpture is a part of the artist's most recent body of work, in which she uses paper porcelain—porcelain that has been given a 0.5% paper fiber addition for increased flexibility—to produce organic, dynamic, and natural shapes. The material's physical limits are tested (it collapses during firing), and the balance between the full and empty spaces produced by the shapes is experimented with. Although she assembles various components to create her sculptures, the final outcome after firing is always subject to surprise because of this collapsing process. This sculpture's use of colour is a key component that is likely to elicit an emotional or psychological response from the viewer. The surface's linear patterns direct the viewer's attention along the curves, emphasising the soft, light and fluid appearance.

Stand-Ins for Period of Wreckage 25
By Theaster Gates
Located in Palm Desert, CA
A sculpture by Theaster Gates. "Stand-Ins for Period of Wreckage 25" is a contemporary sculpture, white concrete and porcelain by American, Blue Chip artist Theaster Gates. The artwork is unsigned. Theaster Gates' practice includes sculpture, installation, performance and urban interventions that aim to bridge the gap between art and life. Gates works as an artist, curator, urbanist and facilitator and his projects attempt to instigate the creation of cultural communities by acting as catalysts for social engagement that leads to political and spatial change. Gates has described his working method as “critique through collaboration” – often with architects, researchers and performers – to create works that stretch the idea of what we usually understand visual-based practices to be. For his exhibition at Milwaukee Art Museum exhibition in 2010, for example, Gates invited a 250 strong gospel choir into the galleries to sing songs adapted from the inscriptions on pots by the famous 19th century slave and potter 'Dave Drake'. For the 2010 Whitney Biennial, Gates transformed the Whitney’s Sculpture Court with a spare, architectural installation that functioned as a communal gathering space for performances, social engagement, and contemplation. For the duration of the exhibition Gates collaborated with various creative practitioners on a series of 'monastic residencies', holding live events such as the session by Gates' musical ensemble, the Black Monks of Mississippi. In another recent exhibition at Seattle Art Museum, Gates transformed the gallery into an audio archive entitled 'The Listening Room', incorporating a hand-built DJ...
