The Royal Academy of Arts sculpture courtyard extends the current exhibition with pieces from this acclaimed New York artist showing a 3D nature to the movement from the 1950's with Pollock and Rothko as its adversaries, monumental in scale with steel as the preferred material of choice the structure, angles and figuration of these pieces show thought forms of the day and a progressive changing era...bold, pragmatic and encompassing!
