Summary

1. Address' brings together twenty sculptures by the Chicago-based artist Richard Rezac produced over the last two decades. Alongside a number of new works commissioned by the Renaissance Society, the exhibition features primarily recent sculptures and a small selection from earlier in his career. Presented together, they demonstrate the artist?s ongoing engagement with the sculptural logic of geometry and the elusive mechanisms of interpretation. The exhibition title, 'Address', plays on the multivalent quality of the word. As an action, it reflects the artist?s deliberate creation and selection of works in response to the Renaissance Society?s architecture and nods to the sculptures? relationship to their presumptive audience. As a noun, it recalls for the artist significant geographical contexts: his studio, where all of the works in Address were produced, as well as specific locations reflected in a number of the works? titles.00Exhibition: The Renaissance Society, Chicago, USA (21.04-17.06.2018) / Blaffer Art Museum, Houston, USA (08.09-08.12.2018).
