One of the most prominent and influential sculptors of the era, Joel Shapiro has long explored geometric form through structural compositions of rectangular elements that visually and physically challenge the possibilities of balance and weight. On view in his Nasher exhibition was a series of brightly painted, suspended forms that hovered in space at different heights and angles, along with a series of recent drawings and key works by Shapiro from the Nasher’s permanent collection.
