Indepth Arts News: "Keith Sonnier " 1999-10-02 until 1999-11-28 Kunsthaus Bregenz Bregenz, , AT Austria
In the series BA-O-BA, begun in 1969, still in progress and clearly
characterized by this postminimalist concept of New Sculpture, Sonnier
combines materials and motifs from foreign cultures with those of modern
Western industrial society. At the same time he actively involves both the
viewer and the surroundings in his works through the use of colored light in
combination with shiny, reNULLecting or transparent materials. The works thus
receive a progressive, open character.
Besides two works from the BA-O-BA series and three other sculptures,
this comprehensive solo exhibition will include an interactive video
installation, a complex spatial installation with fluorescent light, as well as
numerous computer printouts of publically commissioned works by Sonnier
of the last few years. In addition, a light installation in the glass facade of
the Kunsthaus is planned.
