IN SEARCH OF SHADOWS
The title of the exhibition, In Search of Shadows, reflects Hubbell’s interest in bringing awareness to the forms that are created from three-dimensional sculpture and the importance of understanding the visual language of sculpture: edge, line, form, mass, color, texture. Works on view will range in scale from hundred pound abstract bronze sculptures to more intimate pieces crafted from wood, showing Hubbell’s extraordinary craftsmanship and intuitive approach to his materials. Highlights of the exhibition include a new bronze gate that will welcome visitors into the exhibition and a careful selection of seminal pieces such as Bow and Blue Meadow woven together with a mix of small and medium scale bronze, wood and glass sculptures that meditate on his interpretations of nature.
Abstract imagery in the work ranges from the curves of a nautilus shell or the energy of the ocean to the lines of a tree or wisteria growing on a branch.
