• Cragg expresses the transformative power and creativity of nature in vibrant layers. • Works from the series "Off the mountain" have been shown in 2011 at the Musée du Louvre, Paris in the solo exhibition "Tony Cragg, Figure Out Figure In" and in the 2012 Victoria and Albert Museum/Exhibition Road, London, in 2012. • Cragg is the winner of the Turner Prize (1988) and the Praemium Imperiale (2007) from the Japanese Imperial Family, as well as numerous other awards. • His sculptures are in many renowned public collections, such as the Tate Gallery, London, the Museum Ludwig, Cologne, and the Von der Heydt-Museum, Wuppertal.
Nou Gallery, Taipeh. Private collection, USA
Tony Cragg's dynamic and powerful works with flowing forms are reminiscent of rock formations and erosion lines. They unfold a presence that oscillates between naturalness and abstraction. Wavy forms and curved lines are conjured up by the infinitely slow yet unstoppable forces of nature that have shaped the face of the earth over millions of years in continuous transformation. At this moment, the static sculpture suddenly comes to life, appearing to be in a constant state of change. Cragg, one of the most important contemporary sculptors, goes beyond mere representation in 'Off the Mountain', exploring the essence of form and material. The heavy, compact bronze takes on an unexpected lightness and apparent instability, making the work appear almost weightless. This ambivalence between static and motion, material and energy, typical of Cragg's work, lends the sculpture a fascinating tension. In the context of contemporary sculpture, 'Off the Mountain' is a prime example of Cragg's innovative pictorial language. The structures seem both familiar and foreign, and Cragg deliberately plays with the viewer's perception, allowing a broad, open spectrum of associations and questioning the boundaries between nature and art. Between pure form, sediment structures, natural forces, and artistic language, the sculpture reveals a visual and conceptual complexity that provides ever-new reasons for contemplation.
