Hiding Places for a Dense City

Robert Fischer’s hybrid sculptures simultaneously reflect fantasy and reality. During his residency, Fischer will compare the temporary ice fishing houses of the Great Lakes region with the water towers, fire escapes, and other rooftop structures of New York. Fischer states that he has created “work that draws on the similar qualities of adventure, escape, and redefinition embodied by ice fishing towns and rooftop landscapes.”

In conjunction with this residency, Art in General publishes a brochure with a text by Francesco Bonami. It can be downloaded here for free. For a printed version, purchase this publication along with the entire set of Art in General’s residency brochures in the online store for only $5.
