Alex Corno
Red and Brown Relief

About the Item

Valley House Gallery & Sculpture Garden presented the first solo exhibition in the United States of sculpture and works on paper by Italian artist ALEX CORNO in 2015. In his studio near Milan, Corno creates abstract forms using welded iron and stainless steel. His bold yet lyrical mastery of form caught our attention when we were first introduced to Corno by the 240-page monograph published on his work in 2013. He achieves a sense of poetry in his use of proportion, rhythm, color, texture, and the dance between negative and positive spaces. Casting sentimentality aside, Corno is relentlessly inquisitive about seeking dynamic relationships within the formal language of sculpture. This sculpture is illustrated in the 72-page exhibition catalogue published on the occasion of the inaugural US exhibition "Alex Corno: Works, Milano-Dallas," October 10 - November 7, 2015, at Valley House Gallery.

Trigono

Dimensions: 19.7 x 11 x 15.75 inches (50 x 28 x 40 cm) Base Plate Dimensions: .8 x 23.7 x 23.7 inches (2 x 60 x 60 cm) base From the signed and numbered edition of 3 "Quayola employs technology as a lens to explore the tensions and equilibriums between seemingly opposing forces: the real and artificial, figurative and abstract, old and new. Constructing immersive installations, he engages with and re-imagines canonical imagery through contemporary technology. Landscape painting, classical sculpture and iconography are some of the historical aesthetics that serve as a point of departure for Quayola’s hybrid compositions. His varied practice, all deriving from custom computer software, also includes audiovisual performance, immersive video installations, sculpture, and works on paper. His work has been performed and exhibited in many prestigious institutions worldwide including V&A Museum, London; Park Avenue Armory, New York; National Art Center, Tokyo; UCCA, Beijing; How Art Museum, Shanghai; SeMA, Seoul; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Ars Electronica, Linz; Sonar Festival, Barcelona and Sundance Film Festival. Also a frequent collaborator on musical projects, Quayola has worked with composers, orchestras and musicians including London Contemporary Orchestra, National Orchestra of Bordeaux, Ensemble Intercontemporain, Vanessa Wagner, Jamie XX...
