Allotropisms, 2011 Cristin Tierney, New York, NY

Measuring fifteen feet high and spanning a length of sixty-five feet, Kronschlaeger has combined elements of biomorphic and geometric abstraction to create a giant stalactite composed entirely of wire mesh, wood and poured paint. Impressive in scale and subtle in its aesthetics, this installation hovers halfway between an Alpine mountain range and a Sol LeWitt sculpture.
