| Barbara Westermann | |
Barbara Westermann is a German sculptor living in Providence, RI. In her new work, Westermann continues the traditions of conceptualist “social sculpture,” which began for her during the late 1970s and early 1980s (Joseph Beuys and Daniel Spoerri were her teachers). In Infrastructure #73 (which includes The Nurnberg Funnel and related relief works), Westermann applies the language of minimalism, using elemental abstract shapes, but at the same time going beyond the minimal with an eye and ear to feminism, musical instrumentation, and Social Democratic politics. This work informs a historical, social narrative using a metaphoric, three-dimensional vocabulary. She reveres the purity of form which goes back to medieval sciences, alchemy, and magic. |

Calling All Mermaids
2004 |
)
|
| Outdoor sculpture. 'Calling All Mermaids' latches itself like a leech to any wooden flagpole, in order to transmit ultrasonic messages from sea to land. You can listen, on tiptoes, as if to a whelk, to the ultramarine transmissions and also relay your thoughts back just by talking into the megaphone. |
