THE NATURE OF ENTANGLEMENTS
January 11, 2011-March 31, 2012
January 11, 2011-March 31, 2012
The Nature of Entanglements presents photographs of Patrick Dougherty’s site specific installations in Hawaii, Washington, Massachusetts, New Mexico, and California. As Dougherty completes his three week artist residency at the Palo Alto Art Center, photographs of his creative process will be added to the exhibition.
The exhibition features delicate bird’s nests entangled with feathers and found natural materials for which Dougherty’s monumental constructions have a strong kinship. Such nests are at the core of inspiration for the anonymous individuals, who reverently created historic Native American baskets in the exhibition. Reaffirming the continuing relationship of art, nature, and human culture are striking contemporary basketry and works with entangled forms by Ruth Asawa, Timothy Berry, Dominic Di Mare, Gyöngy Laky, and Kay Sekimachi.
The exhibition has received support from Fort Mason Center in San Francisco.
