Fred Sandback: Vertical Constructions
This publication presents the first comprehensive survey of Fred Sandback's influential Vertical Constructions, solidifying his legacy as a celebrated artist. Published in conjunction with a 2016 exhibition at David Zwirner, New York, the catalogue revisits Sandback's 1987 mid-career presentation in Münster, featuring archival images from that show alongside new photographs from Zwirner’s installation. Expanding beyond these two exhibitions, it highlights key examples of Sandback’s vertical sculptures across his career.
New scholarship by Yve-Alain Bois explores Sandback’s use of immateriality, emphasizing how his work resonates in memory. Lisa Le Feuvre provides a historical perspective, connecting Vertical Constructions to Sandback’s writings and broader practice. Additionally, David Gray reflects on Marianne Stockebrand's original essay on the Münster installation, offering insights into the dialogues that shaped Sandback's approach. This catalogue captures both the historical significance and lasting impact of Sandback's work, serving as an essential resource for understanding his minimalist vision.
