Nothing could be more obvious than that it is a bit silly to present three dimensional objects via a series of two dimensional photographs. The way a sculpture occupies space is integral, and is ignored by flattening it. The different perspectives it offers as you move around it, or even as the light changes, are dramatic.
On the other hand, we are well used to looking at pictures of things, in catalogs or magazines, or web pages, and coming to a pretty good understanding of what they really look like by examining the photographs. I will submit to you however, that in the case of something entirely new, that process may not work as well as it does with something more usual.
If you browse Motor Trend, for example, and see the new Challenger, you will have a lifetime of experience of looking not just at cars, but at pictures of cars (well, maybe you won’t, but the sort of person who regularly browses Motor Trend will), and you will put that experience to use in coming to an understanding of the new model.
In the case of these objects, which are the result of what is partially the very old process of lost wax casting, but also the very new process of algorithmic generation of form, you might not be as confident. I should add that I am very very pleased with the way the pictures came out, and fell that Andy did a remarkable job of capturing the sensation of what it is like to be in the presence of the pieces! He is a true craftsman, and it was a pleasure to work with him.
All that is just to say that if you happen to be in Santa Fe, and would like an opportunity to see the pieces in person, please feel free to reach out, and we will arrange it.
