Rudolf Polanszky
This book was published on the occasion of Rudolf Polanzky at Gagosian, 541 West 24th Street, New York, the artist’s first exhibition with the gallery. It highlights recent paintings and sculptures by the Viennese artist dating from 2014 to 2019.
To make his richly textured assemblages, Polanszky uses salvaged industrial materials such as acrylic glass, aluminum, mirrored foil, silicone, and wire, recombining them into purely aesthetic forms divorced from their original contexts. An essay by Francesco Stocchi considers Polanszky’s work in relation to the concept of the void, while an illuminating conversation with the artist by Hans Ulrich Obrist offers an overview of Polanszky’s career.
