Now on view along Chicago’s lakefront! As part of IN/SITU Outside and in partnership with the Chicago Park District, Chicago DCASE and Rhona Hoffman Gallery, EXPO CHICAGO is proud to present two Nancy Rubins sculptures from her Diversifolia series. First shown in London in 2018, this is the first time the series will be seen stateside for a longer installation period and displayed outdoors to be enjoyed by the public. Nancy Rubins transforms industrial objects—such as cast animals, playground toys, airplane parts, and boats—into the building blocks for her sculptures. Following the lifecycle of her chosen materials, Rubins hones the formal qualities of these discrete components. Held together by stainless steel wiring, the tension among these components investigate a static moment in Rubins’s works that serves as both a testament to their monumentality, as well as the possibility of ever-changing plasticity.
