"Kendall Buster"
1999-07-30 until 1999-10-24
Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art
Kansas City, MO, USA United States of America

Washington, DC, artist Kendall Buster creates monumental sculptures whose sleek forms suggest natural things such as enormous seeds or pods. Her precisely articulated forms also suggest probing and receiving--exterior parts and interior spaces. With undergraduate degrees in microbiology and art, and an M.F.A. in sculpture from Yale, Buster combines a naturalist's desires with a minimalist's aesthetic. The resulting large-scale sculptures represent, in her words, the "demarcation of empty space, a site of germination where an event has happened or is about to occur." Buster will create new sculptures for her exhibition in half of the main gallery, and will be an artist in residence at the Museum.
