Alice Aycock : Early Works - Spendel, Mareike; Cordray, Julianne (Berlin : Galerie Thomas Schulte, 2019)
For Berlin Art Week 2018, Galerie Thomas Schulte opens a comprehensive exhibition showing early works by the American artist Alice Aycock. After studying with Robert Morris at Hunter College, Aycock was one of youngest members during the 1970s of the circle of artists around Gordon Matta-Clark and New York’s legendary 112 Greene Street Gallery. In the context of Land Art and Postminimalism, Aycock created a series of pioneering installations of wood, stone, and concrete already in her early years that move between sculpture, architecture, and landscape. This exhibition shows not only two of her early installations, but also drawings and photographs from her important early projects, including her contribution to Documenta 6. Her drawings and photographs should not be considered mere documentation of the projects realized, but also as forms of expression and thought all on their own that Aycock developed parallel to her sculptures.(from publisher)
