Indepth Arts News: "Hew Locke" 2003-03-11 until 2003-04-04 Wimbledon School of Art, Centre for Drawing London, , UK United Kingdom
Hew Locke will be showing a group of new experimental works made during his
intensive six week residency at the Wimbledon School of Art, Centre for Drawing. Hew lives and works in London and is well known for his large architectural constructions.
One of these large architectural constructions - “Cardboard Palace” – about which he
writes that it is: “a huge architectural drawing – a cut and glued
installation/sculpture which draws upon Baroque, Rococo, Hindu, Islamic and
colonial architecture, along with fairground art. In it I draw with light
and shadow, Stanley knife and marker pen. I transmute a cheap lowly
material into the substance of High Art. I attempt to bridge the seemingly
insurmountable gap between Western and non-western art forms.”
