Fred Wilson: “Looking Through Glass Darkly:\u00a0Exhibition Projects and Sculpture”<\/p>\n

Fred Wilson presents his museum installations of the past 25 years which infiltrate museum structures and art historical canons through the medium of display. He is also showing his recent sculpture in bronze and glass, which investigate the symbolism and meaning of the color black. In these works, inspired by historic design, art, and literature, Wilson creates both baroque and simple forms that speak to contemporary times.<\/p>\n

Fred Wilson is a conceptual artist whose work explores the relationship between museums, individual works of art and collections of other kinds. He is a 1999 MacArthur Fellow and represented the United States at the 2003 Venice Biennale. Since 2001, he has explored making sculpture in glass, among other media. His work can be found in several public collections, including The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Tate Modern in London, The Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Whitney Museum of American Art.<\/p>\n

Presented by\u00a0The University of Vermont Department of Art and Art History and The Mollie Ruprecht Fund for Visual Arts.<\/p>\n
