Anything could be a viable material for art for Asawa … She had a very open, experimental, kind of expansive vision of what art could be. Watch video.
Ruth Asawa: Retrospective presents the full range of the artist’s groundbreaking practice, offering an in-depth look at her expansive output and its inspirations through more than 300 artworks.
Five years in the making, this international retrospective, organized by SFMOMA and New York's MOMA, will feature over 300 works of art, featuring the intricate looped-wire hanging sculptures for which Asawa is best known. The exhibition will also showcase her works in a wide range of other media.
