Description
"David Black is clearly on a roll, as these climactic sculptures suggest. They are remarkable for their sense of elation-a novelty in public space-and dynamics, which makes them and exciting environment unto themselves, even as they anchor the environment they inhabit, humanizing it in the process...Black describes his scuptures as 'pavilions, ' proto-architecture, ' creating 'a strong, new core for an area, ' be it a park or a plaza, any open 'extra' anonymous space, 'a space left over.' Black's sculptue transforms this indifferent public space into a peculiarly personal place: a public place with a private dimension." - Dr. Donald Kuspit, art critic, author, editor, professor of art history and philosophy, SUNY, Stony Brook.
