Additional Information: |
This essay, InDifference, considers Eva Rothschild’s work from the start of her career in the late 1990s through to the date of publication. That work encompasses woven posters, plaited leather ‘heads’ and ‘snakes’, stacks, hoops, frames, the arrangements of pierced triangular perspex elements, and more. The essay’s title alludes to a number of important themes in her sculpture, ranging from the practical - the choice and use of particular materials, and the reflective - the question of gender, and of the relationship of her work to other sculptors who have addressed that issue such as Eva Hesse and Jackie Winsor. It also refers to the manner in which she sees her work ultimately asserting itself as sculpture in distinction from its more general status as an object. To quote from the essay: In addition to this essay, the book also includes an interview with Eva Rothschild by Laura Hoptman, at that time Curator at the New Museum, New York, now Curator in the Department of Painting and Sculpture, Museum of Modern Art, New York. |
