corpus is a new work commissioned from one of the world’s great installation artists for MASS MoCA’s most dramatic space – the massive Building 5 gallery. Rather than fill the football field-sized space with objects—as Robert Rauschenberg, Tim Hawkinson, and Robert Wilson did in previous installations—Hamilton has animated the volume of the space with sound, light, and millions of sheets of paper that will fall from the ceiling over the course of the ten-month installation.
This is amazing. We spent much time yesterday admist the floating papers, gently blanketing the concrete floor. Peaceful and serene.
This is one of my favorite places. It is as interesting to watch the reactions of others to the art, as it is to watch the art itself. I am finding as of late that I need to challenge myself in some way every day. A little art, a little politics, something. This museum fits the bill!
