MoMA - Kingelez Exhibit

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) had an exhibition of Bodys Isek Kingelez's creations. Titled: 'City Dreams', it ran from May 26, 2018 to – January 1, 2019. It was the first US retrospective of Kingelez’s work and spanned his full career.

 

Kingelez’s vibrant, ambitious sculptures are created from an incredible range of everyday materials and found objects — colored paper, commercial packaging, plastic, soda cans, and bottle caps — all meticulously re-purposed and arranged.

 

This creation is "Bel Atlas".

 

He created this piece during a six-month stay in Paris. He was inspired by the Grand Arche de la Defense. His creation has three sides while the building has four sides. Both, however, share a hollow center.
