Book Description
Albert Paley's monumental sculpture, Threshold, was dedicated on October 30, 2006, in Rochester, New York. Located in front of the new headquarters for the Klein Steel Service Inc., it was commissioned by the company and its CEO, Joe Klein, and it commemorates the long-standing professional and personal relationship between Albert Paley and Joe Klein. The book documents the history of Klein Steel from its origins in post-World War II Rochester to the present day. In doing so, the city of Rochester is featured as is the background of the steel industry in the United States. Joe Klein's education, busines acumen and his commitment to the arts and creativity is examined, as is his friendship with Albert Paley, covering over 35 years. The artist's evolution is framed within the context of patronage in the arts and corporate support of the arts, as well as against the background of recent public art and site-specific sculpture. Paley's work has been widely published, collected, and exhibited since the mid-1970s. He is constantly responding to new challenges and his sculpture has never ceased to evolve. This story of the making of Threshold reaffirms his search for new modes of creativity, as well as the dialogue between sculpture and architecture at the same time. This documents the unique bond between a chief executive officer and an artist.

ISBN: 9788876246340

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The monumental site-specific metal assemblages Albert Paley has created over the past three decades place him not only in the forefront of contemporary sculpture but also in the vanguard among artists working in the new, genre-defying area that has been called "Archisculpture." This richly illustrated monograph presents the full spectrum of Albert Paley's work. Paley goes beyond creating sculptures that stand as isolated works of art. His sculptures enhance the spaces in which they are placed and, in return, are enhanced by those spaces. He has established himself as an artist who is constantly pushing boundaries, questioning old categories and redefining himself in his own distinctive idiom, at once visionary and persuasively tangible. Noted art historian Donald Kuspit discusses Paley's development as an artist, his virtuosity as a monumental sculptor and his diverse and significant achievements.
