American ArtThe Summer 2024 issue of ICON features a profile on Arlene Shechet, a sculptor known for her modest mixed-media work. As Glenn Adamson writes in his article, Shechet’s stunning exhibition of monumental sculptures, currently on view at Storm King Center for the Arts in upstate New York (through November 10), is “the latest evidence, and perhaps the greatest, of Shechet’s insatiable curiosity.” Dubbed “Girl Group,” the show features heavy metal sculptures made of aluminum and steel, redefined in bold colors like emerald green, chartreuse, and orange.
in May, Aiya We caught up with Shechet at Storm King as she prepared for the opening. She talked about how she approaches her work with humor and playfulness, and accepts that mystery is always part of her process.
