For Michael Beutler, a professor of sculpture in Hamburg, Germany, an exhibition is a kind of workshop. His work isn’t necessarily made in the studio and transported to a gallery; instead, it unfolds in response to its location, in conversation with the surrounding space, and is created with the help of a large team.
Martin Puryear
BOSTON Museum of Fine Arts While Puryear’s forms may hint at the figurative, the language of abstraction has always been his vehicle for structural realizations that transcend any particular artistic style, or easy interpretation.
Manuel A. Rodríguez-Delgado
BUFFALO, NEW YORK The Buffalo Institute for Contemporary Art Two bodies of interrelated work simultaneously awkward and elegant, eccentric and meticulous artifacts scrupulously assembled from contemporary debris, read like scrappy and glitchy roadside attractions plucked from a Cormac McCarthy desert and plopped into an underfunded but pristine interstellar museum on a Samuel R. Delany planet.
Sandy Skoglund
SAN ANTONIO McNay Art Museum Sandy Skoglund, a multimedia artist whose work encompasses photography, sculpture, and installation, is perhaps best known for Radioactive Cats (1980), a photograph in which dozens of neon green cats infiltrate a drearily gray kitchen, its inhabitants somehow oblivious to the infestation.

Mella Shaw
DUNDEE, U.K. The McManus Shaw’s large-scale sculptural forms, which take the whale’s tiny inner-ear bones as their point of reference, are made from a clay body that incorporates whale bone ash, processed much like the cow bones that have been used in bone china for centuries.

SUNDERLAND, U.K. Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art In such interstitial spaces—temporarily land and temporarily water—Robertson has found a natural corollary for their sense of self, an identity in similar motion, once condemned as being against nature.
