betwixt: Judy Pfaff 1985/92
The Mount Holyoke College Art Museum recently acquired Judy Pfaff鈥檚 Wallabout, 1986 and this exhibition celebrates the historical moment in the artist鈥檚 career when she made that sculpture. Between 1985 and 1992, Pfaff created large-scale, multi-media works that bridge, both conceptually and physically, the surface of the wall and the space of the gallery. Featuring a selection of her signature installations from this period, the exhibition explores Pfaff鈥檚 restless quest for visual equilibrium within an explosive array of forms and colors, shapes and lines, solids and voids. Her cyclonic compositions challenge the notion of an object at rest. Also on view will be several prints that echo in two dimensions the artist鈥檚 formal concerns in sculpture.
