SynopsisMatthew Monahan (born 1972) adorns his precariously assembled figurative sculptures with wax, glitter and spray paint to achieve effects of aged bronze, portraying his subjects as loose gatherings of worn parts that might fly apart at any moment. This is his first monograph., Matthew Monahan (*1972 in Eureka, California) assembles found materials into dynamic sculptures. His work pays homage to ancient and contemporary cultures and exhibits references to works by Joseph Beuys, Dieter Roth, or Isa Genzken. Besides his sculptures, he creates detailed charcoal drawings that are frequently an integral part of his assemblages. Laura van Grisven notes in this respect: "Monahan searches for images, icons of hope and faith, and in equal measure of despair and pain, cutting across history, across cultures. He modernizes these images and makes them utterly his own." For this exhibition, Matthew Monahan combines signature pieces with new sculptural works embracing Zaha Hadid's architecture and responding to the unusual spatial relationships and perspectives of the venue's spaces. The publication is the first comprehensive book project of the artist to date.
