Artwork Highlight

Over a remarkable four-decade career, Ursula von Rydingsvard has become one of the most influential sculptors working today. Von Rydingsvard is best known for creating large-scale sculptures from cedar beams, painstakingly cut, assembled, laminated, and rubbed with powdered graphite. Her signature abstract shapes refer to things in the real world - vessels, bowls, tools - each revealing the mark of the human hand while also summoning natural forms and forces. The artist's work is recognized for its great psychological force and powerful physical presence.

In 2011, SculptureCenter premiered Ursula von Rydingsvard: Sculpture 1991 - 2009, a traveling exhibition of some of the artist's most significant sculptures. Since her SculptureCenter exhibition, von Rydingsvard has exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL (2015), the 56th International Art Exhibition at the Venice Biennale, Italy (2015), Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, PA (2018), and the National Museum of Women in the Arts (2019). The artist is represented by Galerie Lelong, New York, NY.
