Matthew Monahan, a Californian sculptor born in 1972, presents a new body of work featuring eight bronze sculptures that challenge the ideals, icons, and myths of classicism. The figurative pieces draw from a vast pool of images, ranging from classical to sci-fi-inspired, and play with the idea of sculpture as ruin.
Monahan's sculptures explore the concept of classicism, challenging the traditional notions of beauty, proportion, and form. By incorporating elements from diverse sources, including science fiction, the artist creates a dynamic and thought-provoking dialogue between the past and the present, between the idealized and the subverted.
The eight bronze sculptures in this exhibition serve as a testament to Monahan's artistic vision and his ability to reinterpret and reinvent classical themes. Each piece is a unique and captivating exploration of the human form, with a focus on the interplay between the physical and the conceptual.
Through these works, Monahan encourages the viewer to question the established norms and to consider the ways in which our understanding of the past can be reshaped and reinterpreted. The sculptures offer a glimpse into the artist's creative process, as he seamlessly blends classical aesthetics with contemporary influences, creating a visual language that is both familiar and innovative.
The exhibition presents an opportunity for audiences to engage with Monahan's artistic practice and to discover the nuances and complexities inherent in his work. The use of bronze, a material historically associated with classical sculpture, adds a layer of depth and permanence to the pieces, further emphasizing the artist's exploration of the relationship between tradition and innovation.
Monahan's work invites the viewer to embark on a journey of discovery, where the boundaries between the real and the imagined are blurred, and the conventions of classicism are challenged and reimagined. Through his sculptures, the artist encourages a deeper understanding of the ways in which we perceive and interpret the world around us, and the role that art can play in shaping our perspectives.
