Sarah Sze’s Triple Point (Planetarium), one of the works created for the U.S. Pavilion at the 2013 Venice Biennale, will be on view at The Bronx Museum of the Arts from July 3 to August 24, 2014.
Sze’s work attempts to navigate and model the ceaseless proliferation of information and objects in contemporary life. Incorporating elements of painting, architecture, and installation within her sculpture, Sze investigates the value we place on objects and explores how objects ascribe meaning to the places and times we inhabit.
Sze’s U.S. Pavilion was consistently cited as one of the standout national pavilions at the 55th Venice Biennale. London’s Guardian praised “the subtle, concentrated work of Sarah Sze, who makes intricate, perfectly poised yet ephemeral sculptural installations out of prosaic materials….Sze’s art has an obsessive, introverted quality but it manages to feel as though it is articulating big ideas… Amid the cacophony of the Biennale, the studied quietness of the U.S. Pavilion reverberates and commands attention.”
