Ursula von Rydingsvard: Errātus at Galerie Lelong

Published by Gallery Crawl, April 16, 2010

“Errātus,” Latin for ‘wandering’ or ‘straying’ is the title of the current exhibition of five works by Ursula von Rydingsvard at Galerie Lelong. The sculptures are dispersed evenly throughout the entire the gallery on walls and as freestanding sculptures, compelling the visitor to wander through the space and confront the objects as individual pieces. The works are of varying dimensions and shapes, having only its media (cedar and graphite) and the mark of the artist’s hand in common. They are on the cusp of being free flowing, organic forms if it were not for von Rydingsvard’s deliberation and control.
