In 2006, Daniell Cornell curated The Sculpture of Ruth Asawa: Contours in the Air at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, the first solo museum exhibition of Asawa’s work in San Francisco in over 30 years. These photos are from that exhibition.
Here’s a taste of what it was like to wander through the different rooms, experiencing the play of light and shadow, surrounded by her work.
