HOUSTON, TX
.-The Menil Collection announced the release of Allora & Calzadilla: Specters of Noon, a new publication focused on the Puerto Rico-based artists show currently on view in Houston.
The exhibition includes seven sculptural works by artists Allora & Calzadilla that revolve around the theme of acedia, a demon that besieges the soul at noon. Created specifically for the museums main building, the exhibition uses sounds, cast shadows, and novel sculptural materials to evoke an awe- inducing atmosphere of bewilderment and beauty as a metaphor for the contemporary moment.
