is a
term coined by Aldo Aymonino and George Hascup. The publication
contemporary public space - unvolumetric architecture by Aldo
Aymonino and Valerio Paolo Mosco, published by SKIRA in 2006, shows my
earthwork homage to El Lissizky in
Lelystad The Netherlands on pages 266 and 267.
My
sculpture has evolved from surfaces delineating space to space
delineating my sculpture. In the beginning, when I made bronze
sculptures, I was always bothered by the fact that the core was still
inside of the sculpture. A bronze sculpture has to produce a sound when
you tap it - like a bell. So I would make a hole in the surface to take the core
material out and close it by welding afterwards. But soon this inside space started
to have my increasing attention. The sculpture on the left does not have
a closed inside space - its interior is its exterior. Its mass is merely
a demarcation of space. This
sculpture actually turned out to be a
deconstruction of my earlier sculpture.
