Ground/work 2025: A Close Look
Date/Time
Location
The Clark Art Institute (225 South Street, Williamstown, MA 01267, Williamstown MA)
A Clark educator leads a close examination and in-depth discussion around the outdoor sculpture Coata III by Mexican architect Javier Senosiain. The artist, the leading proponent of organic architecture in Mexico, creates animate structures of polychrome glass mosaic, rooted in Mesoamerican mythology but exemplifying the power of pure imagination. Senosiain's serpentine sculpture dips in and out of Schow Pond like a giant water snake. Through guided conversation and reflection, participants consider how the artist's work is in active dialogue with the Clark's natural environment.
