Douglas Huebler at Paula Cooper Gallery

Before documentation and text became Conceptual Art founder Douglas Huebler’s primary media, his formica sculptures considered how place was experienced as art. Here, the yellow-hued interior of an S shaped sculpture glows mysteriously as it evokes superpower, the alphabet and Truro, MA the place for which it was named. (At Paula Cooper Gallery in Chelsea through Nov 18th).

Douglas Huebler, Truro Series #1, formica on plywood, 35 x 54 x 21 inches, 1966.
