American sculptor Lynda Benglis (American, b. 1941) is known for pioneering challenging work that questions the rigors of Modernism and Minimalism by merging material, form and content. Spanning 40 years, this exhibition represents the breadth of Benglis's creative output, including wax paintings and poured latex and polyurethane foam sculptures of the late 1960s; innovative videos, installations, and "knots" from the 1970s; metalized, pleated wall pieces of the 1980s and '90s; and more recent works in a variety of mediums, such as the monumental cast-polyurethane 'The Graces.' The exhibition also features documentary material underscoring Benglis's interest in performance and self-promotion through magazines and invitation cards, including her infamous advertisement in Artforum in November 1974 that galvanized the art world.
