Sculptural Materiality in the Age of Conceptualism' is structured around four distinct
but interrelated projects initially realized in Italy between 1966 and 1972: Yayoi
Kusama's Narcissus Garden, Michelangelo Pistoletto's Newspaper Sphere (Sfera di giornali),
Robert Smithson's Asphalt Rundown, and Joseph Beuys's Arena. These works all utilized
non-traditional materials, collaborative patronage models, and alternative modes of
display to create a spatially and temporally dispersed arena of matter and action,
with photography serving as a connective, material thread within the sculpture it
reflects. While created by major artists of the postwar period, these particular projects
have yet to receive substantive art historical analysis, especially from a sculptural
perspective. Here, they anchor a transnational narrative in which sculpture emerged,
as a node, a center of transaction comprised of multiple material phenomena, including
objects, images, and actors. When seen as entangled, polymorphous entities, these
works suggest that the charge of sculpture in the late postwar period came from its
concurrent existence as both three-dimensional phenomena and photographic image, in
the interchanges among the materials that continue to activate and alter the constitution
of sculpture within the contemporary sphere
