Michael Snow: Objects of Vision

Michael Snow is a Toronto born artist known internationally as a painter, sculptor, filmmaker, musician and author. This exhibition celebrates his achievement as the 2011 winner of the Gershon Iskowitz Prize. The sculptures in Objects of Vision are are abstract-form sculptures from three distinct yet essentially connected moments in the artist’s career: the late 1950s, the late 1960s and 1982. The sculptures are instruments in the artist’s orchestration of thinking about looking. While each work has a rich exhibition and publication history in varied contexts, they are presented here for the first time as one cohesive and focused investigation of sight and materiality.
