As part of the
Guggenheim's ongoing Intervals series, designed to reflect the
spirit of today's most innovative practices, New York-based artist
Nicola López will create the site-specific work Landscape
X, a sculptural collage
environment in the museum's Frank Lloyd Wright–designed rotunda. López
will utilize three levels of the rotunda between the exhibitions Lee Ufan: Marking Infinity and Maurizio
Cattelan: All. Taking the
construction site as a point of departure, López appropriates elements
of urban infrastructure from chain-link fencing to orange mesh barriers
to lane markers for her graphic intervention in the space. In Landscape X,
the exterior floods the interior, the grid invades the spiral, and
order is distorted. Using various printing, painting, and collage
methods, the vocabulary of forms will periodically appear on available
surfaces along the scrim, floor, wall, and ceiling. The work heightens
the viewer's awareness of the existing architecture and the sense of
immanent activity on the other side of scrim.
Intervals: Nicola López is organized by Helen Hsu, Assistant
Curator, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.
