 Exhibition archive - Sandy Skoglund - Norton Museum of Art - West Palm Beach Florida
Sandy Skoglund: Shimmering Madness and Other Phenomena is organized by the Norton Museum of Art.
Perhaps the most complex of all Skoglund's undertakings, Walking on Eggshells, 1997, is a tour-de-force combining large-scale cast paper bathroom fixtures, a floor made of thousands of empty eggshells, sculptures of snakes and rabbits, as well as a heroic-scaled hieroglyphic wall of cast paper tiles with printed images of animal icons.
Also, in order to give the Norton visitor a broader understanding of the artist, a selection of Sandy Skoglund's photographs of past installations will also be included in the exhibition.

Skoglund takes months to set up the room size installations which she furnishes with a few familiar objects, modeled from clay, painted, and repeated, until they overflow the space, like the hangers in this piece or cats in another of her works.
The difference between the installation and the photograph, which is the real end result of her work, is that the photographs contain people.
Skoglund says her work is based on a Frankensteinian model where the human beings have created a world that is out of control and turns on them.

I'm glad I bought this book because it gives me an Idea of the kind of person Skoglund is, and interesting information on her work as well as many works I have never seen before.
My daughter was so inspired she wanted to use her hard earned money to buy Sandy's book but time and again the book sold out at the museum bookstore.
Sandy Skoglund (who went to school in my home town) has put together one of the most intriguing collections of photographs I've ever seen.
