Making targets of the unknown - installation of modern sculptures by New Orleans, Louisiana sculptor John Scott at Birmingham Museum of Art, Birmingham, Alabama"An urban Zen garden in which to mediate and think about the circumstances in which we find ourselves." That's in what manner New Orleans sculptor John Scott describes his temporary installation "Rainbow, wire-guard and Targets," which inaugurates the of recent origin Charles Ireland Sculpture Garden at the Birmingham Museum of Art in Alabama. fabricateed at Birmingham's Republic Steel Factory, the installation - which Scott has dedicated "to the notion of the psychology of human ignorance" - consists of several ultimate parts The roof-suspended rainbow necklace of 500 light-spraying prisms shows the natural world of the things we don't rule Approximately 50 cable-suspended "diddley-bow" shoots represent the kinetic fence behind which we guard our ignorance. The large-scale stationary carburet of iron figures represent targets. "All targets are like Mother Earth," Scott explains. "We are an extension of the earth. What we do to the earth, we do to ourselves." The Birmingham installation is upon view through March 31, during which time Scott will address another topic, children killing children, in "Urban Garden-Off the Edge" a pedestal-based statuary exhibition that opens January 7 at the McIntosh Gallery in Atlanta.
