As an artist active within the circle of New York Minimal Art, Rosemarie Castoro referred to herself as “paintersculptor,” combining different media in her artworks, such as painting, performance, sculpture, and stage design. Inspired by experimental dance and choreography, her sculptural installations from the 1970s challenged the rational agenda of Minimal Art. This sculptural installation consists of a multitude of singular monumental ladders, and functions as a counterpart to the artwork Land of Lashes.
This work was part of the exhibition “Rosemarie Castoro. Land of Lashes” shown at MAK from May 25 to October 1, 2023.
