Thaddeus Radell's New Bronze Figures Draw from Historical References

Sculptor Thaddeus Radell has created a fresh collection of twisted bronze forms that reference historical influences. This development follows his participation in a February 2011 exhibition that included artists Simon Carr, Stanley Lewis, and Deborah Rosenthal. The exhibition was documented by artcritical, which continues to archive content related to Radell's work. Radell's artistic practice involves manipulating bronze into contorted shapes, suggesting a dialogue with art historical traditions. The 2011 group show presented works by four distinct artists, with Radell's contributions forming part of his ongoing exploration of figurative sculpture. His new series represents a continuation of this investigation, utilizing the durable medium of bronze to produce figures with dynamic, spiraling compositions. The archival record on artcritical preserves information about both the past exhibition and Radell's evolving body of work.
