| | The Brooklyn Rail - April 2006 - David Smith: a Centennial (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | Smith was among the most original, protean, and potent artists of the 20th century, an apparently tireless inventor of unexpected, eloquent forms. |
 | | Smith was one of the most sculptural (and delicate) of sculptors, attuned to the subtleties of how things touch, overlap, and project, and to the physical properties of materials—size, visual weight, color, density, and more—all of which he turned into carriers of profound feeling. |
 | | David Levi Strauss is the author of Between the Eyes: Essays on Photography and Politics (2003), The Fighting Is a Dance, Too: Leon Golub and Nancy Spero (2000), Between Dog and Wolf: Essays on Art and Politics (1999), Broken Wings: The Legacy of Landmines (1998) and a book of poems, Manoeuvres (1980). |
