Solo presentation in the Betty and Edward Marcus Sculpture Park

2017-2018

November 18, 2017–November 2018

In its first ever exhibition devoted to a single artist in the sculpture park, The Contemporary Austin presented an outdoor installation of new and recent large-scale sculptures by Carol Bove.

Anchoring the exhibition in which Bove interpreted a classical sculpture garden was one of the artist’s steel "glyph" works, From the Sun to Zurich (2016). Newly-commissioned examples of Bove's abstract steel "collage sculptures" painted with cyan, yellow, and orange pigments completed the installation.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
