"Free" is inspired by Rubell’s recent visit to Savannah as well as a broad range of ideas from communion and the Annunciation to Le Corbusier’s church at Ronchamp, artists Mark Rothko and Donald Judd, and Hans Namuth’s film of Jackson Pollock painting. By situating a delectable and poetic presentation of local Savannah honey and homemade biscuits within a specially designed sculpture into which visitors enter, Rubell surrounds visitors in a moment of divine presence.
Presented as part of the 2013 deFINE ART program .
