Beschreibung

Observing the creative process of an artist whose works made of scrap materials reference both the traditions of the readymade and of minimal art. Virginia Overton creates large-format sculptures from scrap materials. She salvages steel girders and wooden beams from buildings, dismantles disused vehicles and advertising lettering and assembles, screws and welds these individual parts to create artworks in which material fidelity meets reflections on ecological, social and economic issues. Her works open spaces of meaning between construction and deconstruction, between (building) work and art, between function and symbol. This publication features extensive photographs of the artist creating her sculptures, following the process up to their installation in the museum. Text: Lynn Kost, Clare Lilley, Courtney J. Martin.
