Square Tubes [Series D] 1967

Curator: Here we have Charlotte Posenenske's "Square Tubes [Series D]," a modular sculpture from the 1960s. Editor: It looks like an enormous metal puzzle, or maybe discarded ventilation shafts. Cold and industrial, yet… somehow playful. Curator: Posenenske embraced industrial materials like galvanized steel, inviting viewers to reconfigure the elements. Its all about challenging traditional art notions, isn't it? Editor: Precisely! The focus shifts from the artist's hand to the pure geometry and the interplay of forms. The modules negate any prescribed viewpoint. Curator: It's less about what the artwork *is*, and more about what it *could* be. It's a rather poetic proposition, isn't it? Editor: Indeed. Posenenske's dematerialized art, as some have called it, certainly leaves a lasting impression. Curator: It does make you rethink sculpture and space. Editor: A true testament to the power of simple forms.
