Crossing door
Nigel Hall, 2006
Eenzelfde werk uit 2001 heet ‘Spring’ en staat in Schoenthal,
Zwitserland Het beeldenpark Schoenthal schrijft: The site is
always an important component of Nigel Hall’s works. Spring refers to the
range of hills in the area and takes command of them following the thin
horizontal lines of trees at the ridge of Schöntalfluh. Shadow is as
important to him as lines, mass or emptiness. His objects function rather
like a mountain landscape, constantly changing according to the angle of
viewing.
In 2006 stond het werk op Beaufort Outside, een tentoonstelling langs de Belgische kust. Crossing stond op het strand van Blankenberge, aan de overkant van de vaargeul stond een tweede deel rechtop. Het twin-werk
Crossing (vertical) is door het YSP in 2013 geschonken aan de nabij gelegen
plaats Barnsley
De info van YSP: Nigel Hall has refined a practice
over forty years that is primarily concerned with enclosing and occupying
space, light and shadow, through carefully considered and elegant lines.
Crossing (Horizontal) illustrates certain shapes that Hall employs regularly.
Lines, whether horizontal, vertical or diagonal, and ellipses are devices he
uses in combination to articulate his understanding of space. Hall’s sculpture is often inspired by his experience
of walking in a landscape: how views change depending on different
approaches, the pauses taken to appreciate being in a place and the effects
of the seasons and weather. Nigel Hall (1943)
