Nancy Rubins "Diversifolia" at Gagosian Britannia Street, London opens tomorrow, February 6, 6–8PM GMT. Go check it out. Reversing the scale relationship between sculpture and viewer, a selection of smaller maquettes cast in bronze and aluminum allow Rubins’s calculated compositional decisions to be observed all at once, impossible when circumnavigating the towering assemblages. From the sprawling sculptures to the large-scale graphite drawings—burnished swathes of paper undulating from the walls—Rubins suggests an endless continuum between the chaos and coolness of modernism and the élan vital of the organic.

"Paper into Sculpture" at the Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas, TX, opens tomorrow, October 14. Don't miss out—works by Nancy Rubins and Franz West are included in the show! This exhibition plays on tensions between commonly held understandings of sculpture and what paper can and cannot do, pushed to its physical limits. Treating paper as a material with a palpable three-dimensional presence rather than as a mere support for mark making, artists in this show use processes ranging from tearing, crumpling, and cutting to scattering, binding and adhering to create sculptural works that take a variety of forms and suggest a range of expressive and conceptual implications. http://fal.cn/tRWT

Next week three sculptures by Nancy Rubins will be installed throughout the public areas of the Seattle Art Fair. "A Selection of Work" will be on view August 3–6. Known for her large-scale assemblages of found objects, this selected presentation of studies allows for an intimate consideration of the artist’s iconic boat sculptures and reveals the system of compression and tension utilized in the large-scale works.
