我,雕塑家,是风景。我是形体,我是空洞。芭芭拉·赫普沃斯的1961个引文,写在HeppWaWaKfield的十个画廊空间之一的墙上,反映了雕塑家自身的影响和试图避免任何片面的阅读她的作品的理解。
上周五,佩内洛普·柯蒂斯(Penelope Curtis)在演讲中解释说,赫普沃思对约克郡和康沃尔风景的喜爱无疑是她雕塑发展过程中形成的,但她的作品远不止这些。柯蒂斯是在赫普沃思韦克菲尔德发表演讲的,在那里,两个展览构成了今年夏天在英国泰特举行的赫普沃斯回顾展的序幕,目前柯蒂斯在那里担任总监。
位于西约克郡的大卫·奇普菲尔德建筑师事务所的上层建筑“大自由:赫普沃思1965-1975年”聚焦于赫普沃思生命的最后十年,在这十年里,她探索了新的想法和材料。第二次展览是“约克郡的赫普沃斯”,展示了她早年的生活,展示了赫普沃斯早期作品的精选,还有一些档案照片和一些自己的工作室工具。
在演讲中,柯蒂斯还指出了赫普沃思与建筑的关系的重要性,以及她对艺术目的统一的信念,这反映了她工作的更广泛的背景。她想做“更大的事情”,而不仅仅是制作一个建筑师认为次要的雕塑。她努力在她的作品中重新介绍创作的人性方面和自发性。赫普沃思故意把她的展览表现得有点混乱,就像她经常把盆栽放在微风街区的作品之间那样,预示着一种更现代的博物馆展示形式。
画廊的另一个展览名为“石膏:模特儿和复制品”,同时举办。受赫普沃思石膏原型的启发,它考察了从古代到现代的建模过程。突出的作品包括“单一形式”(Single Form),这是一种抽象的蓝色灰泥形状,在战争年代曾到过巴黎,赫普沃思的版画则来自“爱琴海套房”(The Aegean Suite),显示出典型的60年代对太空旅行的关注。探索性展览是赫普沃斯展览二重奏的完美补充,进一步证明了这位雕塑家与国际艺术家的关系,以及她为满足社会的视觉和社会需求而做出的努力。
