Havel Ruck: Three Houses
Art League Houston (ALH) is excited to announce the 2014 Texas Artists of the Year exhibition, Three Houses by Havel Ruck Projects. The exhibition features a large scale sculpture in the center of the gallery, made from over sixty large architectural fragments collected from three condemned houses in the Third Ward and Midtown area.
Visitors are invited to step inside the sculpture's center, and become engulfed by the re-purposed materials, embedded with decades of inherent characteristics and values typically thrown aside by time, culture, and "progress". An exhibition catalog, featuring an essay by Jim Edwards, is available.
Havel Ruck Projects (artists Dan Havel and Dean Ruck) is an artist collaborative that works in public and quasi-public environments to re-purpose architectural structures and remnants of no perceived market value into works of art. By deconstructing and reconstructing the physical construction of unremarkable spaces and places, their interventions bring attention and recognition to under-appreciated and ordinary buildings and their histories.
