El Anatsui

Dec 3 – Feb 27

At Secession

Innere Stadt, Wien

"opulent abstract fields of color and light"
"sometimes it makes you work. Just as it should be"
Klimt's Beethoven Frieze downstairs, don't skip it

Thousands of liquor bottle caps become cascading tapestries of gold and light. El Anatsui's monumental metal sculptures fold colonial trade histories into shimmering, shape-shifting forms at the Secession.
