Description

The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth presents the special exhibition of work by renowned contemporary sculptor Ron Mueck, an exceptional artist and a virtuoso of hyper realistic sculpture

Ron Mueck’s Untitled (Seated Woman), 1999, in the Modern’s permanent collection, became a community favorite when it was first put on exhibit for the opening of the Modern’s new building in 2002. Since that time, the Museum has continued to receive numerous comments, e-mail messages, and inquiries from visitors about this much-loved work of art. Thirteen works will be on view in the special exhibition, including Untitled (Seated Woman), 1999; the critically acclaimed Dead Dad, 1996–97, a scrupulously rendered, three-foot-long sculpture of the artist’s father lying naked on the floor; In Bed (2005/6), a twenty-foot sculpture of a woman lying tucked in bed; and Baby, 2000, a ten-inch-long newborn infant. A thirty-minute video showing the artist at work will also be part of the exhibition, along with examples of his working materials and casts.
