Frank Stella?s Psychedelic Sculptures Lands in New York
Frank Stella presents Recent Sculpture at Jeffrey Deitch Gallery in New York, that shifts in color, towers tall, and appears to defy gravity.
Legendary artist Frank Stella continues to prove his unparalleled curiosity and capacity for reinvention. His current exhibition ? Frank Stella: Recent Sculpture ? at Jeffrey Deitch in New York?s SoHo neighborhood presents five massive sculptures with color-shifting elements that feel as if they could lift into the air at any second. The exhibition is a visual rollercoaster of surprising form, color, gravity, and scale in a space that invites multi-level vantage points.
Installation, Frank Stella at Jeffrey Deitch, 2024
Upon entry, three sculptures from the Scarlatti Sonata Kirkpatrick stand 16-18 feet tall. All dated 2014, the pieces supported by a single metal pole on a wheeled base. Each work was first designed by Stella in a computer modeling program, allowing solid ribbons, orbs, and spirals to overlap into each other’s space as if there was some glitch in space time. The digital shapes are then 3D printed as small singular objects and sent to fabricators in the Netherlands and Belgium to be engineered at a massive scale using foam, fiberglass, or aluminum, before returning to Stella?s studio in New York to be sprayed with car paint. Installation, Frank Stella at Jeffrey Deitch, 2024
