I was delighted to see so many interesting sculptures, of which I chose a few that seemed either especially characteristic of the artists who made them or, to the contrary, surprising exceptions. I was also pleased to find a range of generations, media, techniques, and interests, that I also sought to represent. No overarching theme; simply works I’m looking forward to seeing. 

My Selection:

Alexandre da Cunha, Herz, Heute, 2013, at Sommer & Kohl 

Joaquín Torres-García, Building with man and objects, 1930, at Leandro Navarro
