Exhibition 'Florian Roithmayr: an exhibition of contemporary sculpture' in Museum of Classical Archaeology
Florian Roithmayr’s work explores the inheritances of mould-making and cast-collecting in an installation of newly-commissioned sculptures, on show for the first time in the Museum of Classical Archaeology’s airy and atmospheric cast gallery.
Staged as a series of interventions amongst the Museum’s collection of plaster casts of Greek and Roman sculpture, the new sculptures are the culmination of a two-year research and exhibition project titled The Humility of Plaster, a collaboration between MOCA, Kettle’s Yard (Cambridge) and Wysing Arts Centre (Bourn), where the artist has a studio.
"In this interstitial space, occurrences often remain unforeseeable and unaccountable."
- Florian Roithmayr
