Urs Fischer Large Scale Sculpture "Big Clay #4" Outside of the Seagram Building
Gagosian Gallery presents Urs Fischer's monumental sculpture Big Clay #4 on view at Seagram Plaza until September 1, 2015. .Fischer's work is the result of an intimate gesture enlarged to epic proportions. The curving, towering stack derives from a scrap of clay that has been squeezed; scanned and enlarged digitally; then cast in aluminum as a 42 1/2-foot-tall sculpture. The silver surface reveals all of the incidental nuances of the original form, including Fischer's fingerprints, which are preserved as striated curves.
