This solo exhibition presents an overview of the work of Ann Sperry (1934-2009) reflecting on four decades of experimentation with the emotional and psychological potential of material. Sperry began making sculpture in the 1960s. In later decades, when the art world came to value postmodern coolness and detachment, Sperry remained unafraid to reach into her heart and soul. She made art about her experience as a woman, a Jew and a human being awestruck by the immensity of the cosmos.
