After her exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, world-renowned sculptor June Crespo will open her latest solo exhibition at 1646 in The Hague on the 6th of September, including new work and site-specific installations.
June Crespo is a sculptor with a strong connection to everyday objects, the physical body and the spaces we inhabit. For her, these all become materials to work with, to think from. In an intuitive way, she explores these materials’ physical qualities, what is visible and what we can’t see. The way they relate to each other and how they can be transformed.
For the exhibition, the artist poetically explores the connection between our bodies and architecture, between our insides and the place we find ourselves in. With this focus, the large interventions and sculptures could be seen as abstract architectural organs, pushing and piercing the walls used as limits between what is inside and outside of them.
The exhibition is part of 1646’s long-term collaboration with the CA2M Museum in Madrid.
