exposición | The Facade Commission: Nairy Baghramian, Scratching the back

Para los nichos de la fachada de la Quinta Avenida del Met, Nairy Baghramian ha creado cuatro esculturas abstractas policromadas con componentes que parecen haber aparecido como restos flotantes en los huecos de sus respectivos nichos. El proyecto es la primera instalación pública del artista en Nueva York y la cuarta de la serie de encargos contemporáneos para la fachada del Met.

Nacida en Irán en 1971, Nairy Baghramian emigró a Berlín (Alemania) en 1984, donde sigue viviendo y trabajando. Baghramian crea esculturas abstractas que exploran la dinámica del cuerpo, el género y las dicotomías del espacio privado y público. Sus esculturas e instalaciones se adaptan a la arquitectura y a menudo evocan gestos corporales, coyunturas o fragmentos. Junto con la sensibilidad al lugar, otros rasgos distintivos de la obra de Baghramian son la policromía y el uso innovador y subversivo de distintos tipos de materiales.
