Tony Feher On view at the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum through September 15th.
See 25 years worth of work from the American sculptor Tony Feher in the first comprehensive, in-depth consideration revealing the richness, complexity, and impact of of the artist's career.
From bottles filled with colored water, to marbles and pennies, Styrofoam blocks and beverage crates, Feher's choice in materials are quotidian and easily acquired. See how he aligns his materials to form sculptures of fluid lines and bursts of color and light.
Influenced by a sense of endangerment due to the epidemic spread of AIDS, Feher, like so many artists of his generation, opted for humanism. He embraces fragility, transience, and emotion and has been highly influential for a younger generation of artists who have similarly become archivists of their own lives.
