HERCULES LITE

Hercules Lite replicated the form of architect Marcel Breuer’s massive support column at Lehman College Art Gallery in a transparent, fluorescent-edged green plexiglass.  It used light and suspension to contrast with Breuer’s sense of weight, simultaneously calling attention to his achievement and entering into a dialog with it.  It was included in Space Invaders, a show of eighteen different artists’ site-specific installations curated by Karin Bravin.
