Opening Reception: April 22, 5-7 pm. Bollinger made significant waves in the late 1960s, challenging the limits of sculpture and expanding thought regarding concept, materiality, and commodity. His works were made from primarily pre-fabricated industrial supplies, such as sawhorses, oil drums, rubber tubing and cyclone fence. Focusing on the gesture of construction and the physical limits of material, Bollinger’s work addressed ideas of gravity, balance and material nature. According to him his interests lay not ‘in the aesthetics of form but in the fact of form’. He frequently used water for as a material, transforming it into something sculptural with mass and form as it fills a plastic hose or a steel barrel. Bollinger summed up his attitude to the making of his work: ‘It is all very easy to execute, does not exist until it has been executed, ceases to exist when it has been taken down.’
