“Nature Never Loses” surveys six decades of the prescient, genre-defying practice of artist Carl Cheng (*1942), whose ever-evolving body of work engages with environmental change, the relevance of art institutions to their publics, and the role of technology in society. His inventive lexicon includes photographic sculptures, “art tools” employed in the production of ephemeral artworks, “nature machines” that anticipate an artificial world shaped by humans, and extra-institutional interventions intended to reach broad audiences.
On this evening, there will be a public opening of this new exhibit.
Admission is free.
