Sculpture After Sculpture, an omnibus exhibition curated by ArtCenter faculty member Jack Bankowsky, opened Oct. 11, 2014, at Stockholm’s Moderna Museet to great fanfare.

The exhibition brings together the work of Katharina Fritsch (b. 1956), Jeff Koons (b. 1955), and Charles Ray (b. 1953) in a far-reaching examination of three innovators whose parallel endeavors have reinvented the traditions of their art form.

A focused examination of 13 masterworks, Sculpture After Sculpture begins with iconic works from the late 1980s and early ’90s that highlight the artists’ early relationships to the commodity and the readymade. Highlights include Koons’s celebrated Michael Jackson and Bubbles and Ray’s two-ton aluminum Tractor.
