SculptureCenter Features Uri Aran Limited Edition Piece

Through the use of original video footage, appropriated or de-contextualized images, and formal elements from easily digested models of cultural production, Uri Aran builds collaged structures and timelines.

His work explores the humor, poetics, and manipulations of everyday objects and popularly held beliefs. Aran calls attention to the nuances within a world of givens. Often deploying a combination of dry narrative and lush imagery, Aran's work is undermined by his own constructions, which can be read as devastated landscapes where a loss of logic mirrors the sense of a set of promises that are currently unfulfilled.

Aran's work has appeared in Knights Move, a group exhibition at SculptureCenter in 2010, with solo exhibitions at Art Basel in 2011, Gavin Brown's enterprise in 2012, and Kunsthalle Zurich in 2013. His work is currently on view in The Encyclopedic Palace, 2013 Venice Biennale, and New York's High Line Park, among other venues.

SculptureCenter's limited edition program is a prestigious commission, inviting artists to create new and innovative artworks.
