NANCY KOENIGSBERG (1927 - )


Enclosure II.
Coated copper wire. 1330x690 mm; 52 3/8x27 1/8 inches (excluding base). 1991.

Koenigsberg combines her interest in textiles and her New York environment to produce wire sculptures assembled of woven, knotted grids of copper, steel, or aluminum wire. The woven wire elements in her sculpture, like fabric, fold onto themselves, while the armature endeavors to hold true to three dimensions, the entire work, like a spider's web, a tribute to strength found within delicate structures. Koenigsberg has exhibited internationally and her works can be found in multiple distinguished public and private collections. Her first solo exhibition at Zabriskie Gallery, New York, was held in 2006.
