N Times One (N Vezes Um)

For her first major solo exhibition in the United States, Anna Maria Maiolino has molded and shaped over 4,000 pounds of clay to create a series of site-specific sculptural works and installations. In a gesture similar to the ancient technique of coil ceramics, Maiolino hand-molded an immense number of clay sculptures that express “the shape of the hand that molds them—the size of man.” Maiolino’s residency is held in conjunction with a retrospective of her drawings at the Drawing Center, New York.

In conjunction with this residency, Art in General publishes a brochure featuring excerpts from an interview with Art in General’s former director, Holly Block. 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.
