"For me the scale of an artist's life and work is of one lived at a particular moment, he is a witness to his time and his testament is his art."⁠ ⁠ Happy Birthday to our longtime friend and the sculptor of the extraordinary, Peter Shelton!⁠ ⁠ In his anthology of artwork, Shelton is notable for not only crafting physically impressive sculptures, but expanding objects into reflective pockets of being. ⁠ ⁠ "What interests me most in my work is the 'peelness' of it, how it lingers on the the threshold between inside and outside...When I look at my own work, I can see my own puzzled face." (Shelton, 2012, speaking on his body of work 'thingsgetwet.') ⁠ ⁠ Shelton's career has been included in numerous exhibitions at prestigious institutions, including solo shows at the Whitney Museum of American Art and LACMA, and celebrated with awards such as the Louis Comfort TIffany Foundation Grant and the John S. Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship. ⁠ ⁠ Learn more about Peter Shelton by finding this post in our linkin.bio. ⁠ ⁠ --⁠ 1.

Anselm Kiefer can really spread, squeegee, splatter and otherwise apply the glop, spooge, goo, gunk, gold and grunge on all types of nastily accreted yet beautifully appointed mangled and crushed debris on his aesthetic acres of destruction and wastelands receding into a smoky and dingy horizon. Well! Golly! I am not perfectly sure what these ginormous paintings mean but, jeepers, what an installation! #anselmkiefer @gagosian #abstractsculpture #abstractart #sculpture #sculptor #contemporaryart #contemporarysculptor #contemporarysculpture #petersheltonsculptor #petersheltonsculpture @petersheltonsculptor @petershelton.com @petershelton @sheltonbigart #petershelton #bigart #sheltonbigart (at Marciano Art Foundation) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmfSGIvPSX_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
