Sharon Louden Reviewed in Art In America

Merge, Weisman Art Museum
My dear friend, artist Sharon Louden, created a fantastical, enormous site-specific installation to celebrate the reopening of the Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis.  Responding to Frank Gehry's iconic architecture, Louden's installation, Merge, is a dazzling tour de force, made of 250,000 aluminum strips.  The work is at the Weisman until May 20, 2012.  Janet Koplos has reviewed the work in Art in America.  Read her review here.

I worked with Sharon on The Attenders, her 2003 solo exhibition at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, when I was curator there.  That was also a beautiful exhibition.  Congratulations, Sharon!
