NATHANIEL RACKOWE: NEW WORKS - Delfina Foundation
Nathaniel Rackowe directs our attention to architecture, its ability to structure human actions and interactions. His drawings and sculptures cohere to form a visual response to the environment created by modernist architecture, its subsequent failures and the aesthetics of regularity and repetition. In these new works, Beirut and its connotations of failed utopianism provide context for Nathaniel’s ongoing exploration of the impossible space between the ideal and the built city.
Nathaniel Rackowe (b. 1977) graduated from the Slade with a MFA in Sculpture. Since his graduation, Nathaniel has exhibited his work internationally including the ICA (London), The Economist Plaza (Contemporary Art Society, Bischoff/Weiss (London), Galerie Almine Rech (Paris), and Baibakov Art Projects (Moscow). Nathaniel has recently completed a Delfina Foundation residency in Beirut, Lebanon.
