Rita McBride is a US-American artist whose installations explore
cultural and sociological issues using the language of
architecture. At first sight, the sculptures and installations are
composed of recognizable daily objects - machines, steps, tubes,
even water towers - that transport us to a standardized world,
where repetition itself establishes a code that facilitates
comprehension. However, the familiarity of form is disturbed by the
materials used - a car made of raffia, tubes out of marble or ficus
leaves modelled in Murano crystal - producing a sensation of unease
and uncertain significance. This exhibition catalog includes a
photographic essay by the artist and photographer Anne Pohlmann
capturing the way in which the museum's activity changes the
architecture of its space over the course of a year.
