Catalogue Note
"Depending upon the viewer's movement, Shapiro's sculpture shifts from the abstract to the figurative, from hyperkinetic flight to collapse, from purely formal to deeply emotional – like a kaleidoscope whose pieces promise, but finally refuse, to settle into resolution." Exh. Cat., New York, The Pace Gallery, Joel Shapiro New Wood and Bronze Sculpture, 1998, p. 6
