The Paper Sculpture Show

The Paper Sculpture Show brings the artist and visitor together by providing a hands-on art making experience. The visitor chooses paper projects designed by artists, assembles them into three-dimensional sculptures, and displays completed artworks in the galleries. The exhibition is composed of works by 29 international artists, including Janine Antoni, The Art Guys, Luca Buvoli, Seong Chun, Glenn Ligon, Cildo Meireles, Eve Sussman, Sarah Sze, Fred Tomaselli, and Chris Ware. Art historical movements such as Fluxus mail art and the Surrealist “Exquisite Corpse” game of collaborative drawing resonate with the exhibition. The Paper Sculpture Show invites visitors to reconsider the relationship between two-dimensional images and three-dimensional sculptural objects, mass production and the handmade, and originality as they become the artists in this interactive exhibition.

Exhibition Artists: Janine Antoni, The Art Guys, David Brody, Luca Buvoli, Francis Cape & Liza Phillips, Seong Chun, Minerva Cuevas, E.V. Day, Nicole Eisenman, Spencer Finch, Charles Goldman, Rachel Harrison, Stephen Hendee, Patrick Killoran, Glenn Ligon, Cildo Meireles, Helen Mirra, Aric Obrosey, Ester Partegs, Paul Ramirez Jonas, Akiko Sakaizumi, David Shrigley, Eve Sussman, Sarah Sze, Fred Tomaselli, Pablo Vargas-Lugo, Chris Ware, Olav Westphalen, and Allan Wexler.

The Paper Sculpture Show is organized by Cabinet magazine, Independent Curators International (iCI), and Sculpture Center. It is curated by Mary Ceruti, Matt Freedman, and Sina Najafi, and accompanied by The Paper Sculpture Book, which contains the entire exhibition in an unassembled, take-home form. The traveling exhibition is organized and circulated by Independent Curators International. The exhibition and its accompanying publication are made possible, in part, by support from the Peter Norton Family Foundation.
