Diversifolia<\/a> Joan Mir\u00f3. Sculptures 1928 – 1982<\/i><\/span><\/strong><\/a> Conference : Five Great Women Sculptors
\n<\/i><\/span><\/strong>Nancy Rubins
\nGagosian Gallery, London (England)
\nUntil April 14th, 2018
\nNancy Rubins sculptures cannot go unnoticed. Not just because of their often-imposing dimensions, but mostly because of their visual and emotional impact. Her vertical assemblages of a variety of shapes and materials inhabit the space as though she had created a miraculous balance. The sculptures presented at the Gagosian Gallery in London are no exception and also defy gravity. The botanical term Diversifolia,<\/i> which refers to the development of a plant\u2019s foliage, here relates to the movement and the directions of the elements that compose her sculptures. Giraffes, turtles, crocodiles, wolves and pigs of steel, bronze, copper and aluminum are suspended in space by cables and brilliantly intertwine.<\/p>\n
