Ursula von Rydingsvard: "Ona" | Art21 "Extended Play"

- Опубліковано 28 лис 2013
- Episode #192: Filmed in August 2013, Ursula von Rydingsvard discusses her large-scale sculpture "Ona" (2013), which is permanently installed outside of Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Originally made with cut cedar beams, the sculpture was cast in bronze at the Polich Tallix Fine Art Foundry, where von Rydingsvard is shown applying a patina to its undulating surface. By installing the work in a public space without security guards or barricades, von Rydingsvard is encouraging visitors to touch the work, to "see with one's hands."
Ursula von Rydingsvard builds towering cedar structures, creating an intricate network of individual beams and sensuous, puzzle-like surfaces. While abstract at its core, von Rydingsvard's work takes visual cues from the landscape, the human body, and utilitarian objects-such as the artist's collection of household vessels-and demonstrates an interest in the point where the man-made meets nature.

Ursula: It was incredibly rewarding being your friend & student back in Miami Springs. As you told me 40 years ago it's not so much talent but vision and you really helped me understand. And you're right, getting older it is harder and it's important that we complete what we need. Your inspiration has always been with me in my clay & coral sculptures. Iwish you good things.
I am so happy for her! I hope to see this someday, and you bet I will teach my friends about the artist. Lovely video, very positive and uplifting. Thank you!
She so cool !! Listening and watching this standing next to one of her sculptures at sf moma
