Speaking of the Hirshhorn


I have never seen this sculpture of Elizabeth King's at the Hirshhorn. I know it from an exhibit at the Nancy Drysdale Gallery years ago. At least the Hirshhorn now includes a photo of the work on their web site. To really see this piece to its best advantage, they would need to place it in a context of compatible works. Something we can almost count on the Hirshhorn never doing. A good start in arranging the comparisons appears on the next post.
