Kasmin is pleased to present an exhibition of three monumental sculptures by George Rickey, opening on September 9, 2021 in the Kasmin Sculpture Garden in Chelsea, New York. Viewable from the High Line at 27th Street, the presentation runs concurrently with George Rickey: Monumental Sculpture on Park Avenue, a major public exhibition of the artist's work along the central median on Park Avenue between 52nd and 56th Streets. This marks the largest ever multi-site exhibition of Rickey's monumental works in the city.

All three works in the Kasmin Sculpture Garden date back to the 1960s, including Rickey’s iconic Two Red Lines (1963-1975), one of the first to feature what would become the artist’s signature vertical blades. The blades of this piece, wrote Hayden Herrera for Artforum in 1975, “intersect, scissor open and slow increasingly as they near the horizontal, as if they were summoning energy for the return voyage,” adding that the movements in all of Rickey’s works, “are complex, random and endlessly intriguing.”
Simultaneous with the rooftop installation, Kasmin will also present a curated selection of indoor Rickey sculptures located in Kasmin's gallery space within The High Line Nine at 507 West 27th Street. -
