Drawing on the Air: The Kinetic Sculpture of Tim Prentice
"Drawing on the Airintroduces the reader to Prentice’s joyful and reflective sculptures that react to every movement of the air.... [It]is a visual treat and a revealing insight into the mind and work of this unique artist..... Designers, artists, students and anyone who loves art will delight in this book." -Antiques and the Arts Weekly, June 2012“Prentice’s sculptures . . .are about fluid movement and change, reminding us that everything is in flux. . . . Wonders of engineering, they create evanescent drawings in thin air.” —Michael Amy, Art in America“What is grand in these sculptures is the sense of immensity created by their movements, a sense resonant with our most pleasurable apprehensions of land, sea, and sky.” —Elaine Bleakney, Sculpture“These refined sculptures are never ponderous, plump or boring but constantly and slowly transforming themselves as though imbued by perpetuum mobile.” —Karen Gerig, Basler ZeitungExperiencing Tim Prentice's work is like taking a ride on a roller coaster”—Catalog of the Connecticut Biennial
