exhibition · 2026-04-22

The Hudson River Museum in Yonkers is showcasing Peter Reginato's abstract maximalist sculptures until September 7, 2003. Reginato, a Dallas native, gained recognition at the age of twenty-five when he participated in the Whitney annual in 1970. His creations are characterized by vibrant colors and forms, drawing inspiration from artists such as David Smith, Calder, Miró, and Elizabeth Murray. The exhibition features notable pieces like 'Area 51' (1999) among other large-scale works. Meanwhile, Aleš Veselý's paper works and sculpture studies are displayed at Carosso Fine Art in New York until September 25, highlighting his ambitious public commission proposals. Wim Delvoye's neo-conceptual sculptures in Madison Square Park and Central Park have faced criticism for their apparent simplicity compared to the works of Reginato and Veselý. This information was published in The New York Sun on August 7, 2003.
