Hyde Park Art Center, Chicago, IL USA United States of America | | Liz Magor : New Works
Susan Hobbs Gallery, Toronto, ON CA Canada Opening on Thursday, May 7 from 7 - 9 p.m., and continuing through June 20, 2009, the Susan Hobbs Gallery is pleased to present new work by Liz Magor. Three new works take the form of service objects�ashtrays, dishes and coffee tables�presenting themselves as a class of domestic servant. The operation of deceptive appearance is exploited in these sculptures as the casting method used to produce them results in highly realistic images assembled in unlikely arrangements. Ashtrays provide the model for these works, as dishes of high utility they are often tricked out as decorative objects to disguise their extreme role as receptacles of harsh material. �As sculptures they have given up their position as the �top� object in the room, assuming instead an attitude of patient waiting. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com
