'Open Objects' by Jonathan Muecke at Volume Gallery
6 September - 9 November 9 '13
Volume Gallery launches its sixteenth series with a collection of new works from Jonathan Muecke, titled Open Objects. Opening reception September 6th from 6-8PM, Chicago, IL.
Open Objects represents Jonathan Muecke’s second solo exhibition, comprised of six objects. The projects represent Muecke’s continuing comprehensive study of each object’s qualities, and dissection of their definition with the intention of engaging the user.
The objects in Vol.16 are both challenging and generous in their intention. Muecke’s projects are a continuation of common design typologies, allowing the user a comfortable starting point to think beyond their familiar notions of use and material, while the projects demand a certain quiet contemplation. Utilizing experimental materials and unique functionality, each piece removes our limitations of understanding and encourages the viewer to engage and interact, rather than react to the object.
