| Details: | Chicago-based artist Richard Hunt (b. 1935) emerged in the late 1950s as one of the foremost practitioners of “direct-metal” sculpting, an additive process that involves manipulating material directly rather than carving or casting it. By welding together scrap metal, such as discarded automobile mufflers and table legs, Hunt creates expressive and intriguingly organic structures that mobilize the space around them. Hunt explored the graphic potential of these forms during a residency at the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles in 1965. Working with master printer Kenneth Tyler, he produced a suite of 8 lithographs entitled Details, along with 17 independent prints, which use a range of visual strategies to engage with the artist’s sculptural practice. Spare line drawings stress the linear profiles of sculpture, activating uninked white paper to define shape and space.
