larry estridge: new sculpture
charest-weinberg gallery, miami
february 14 – april 4, 2009

new work by sculptor larry estridge is currently on show at miami’s charest-weinberg gallery. these new
works are a continuation of estridge’s recent focus on abstract works made from aluminium and steel.
the works explore primary forms by sculpting 2-d metal pieces into 3-d objects of archetypal content.
each piece is equally formed by the positive and negative space within it. the works manage to reference
renaissance forms and aboriginal art, despite their abstract nature. the artist uses pieces of metal that can
be as long as 12 ft., bending, folding and curving them into his sculptures. each piece is then coated with
a glossy automotive finish, playing off the associations to the automobile and the industry’s current state.

Looks like recuperated early modernist knock offs that have nothing to do with the word contemporary.

Miami deserves better than the polished icon of the past.
