Brancusi

Beekeeper boxes in a field are stacked to impossible heights, towers seven or eight boxes high, like a farmer’s version of Brancusi’s “Endless Column” or a modern city skyline.

One of them, Lauren Yeager, stacks used coolers and other found consumer items to create plastic totems: Brancusi à la Igloo.

Anecdotes that Ms. Guggenheim told about her own life — like her lunch with the sculptor Constantin Brancusi as bombs fell over Paris and his weeping at the fate of his works — stuck with her.

Your work shares Brancusi’s soaring verticality, and the wood and the organic forms certainly evoke African sculpture.

It would have been different if Thomas had abstracted the figures in the manner of, say, Henry Moore or Constantin Brancusi.
