Hanging Form No. 3
1963
Gerald Gladstone
1929 - 2005

C’est après avoir travaillé une quinzaine d’années dans l’univers de la publicité que Gerald Gladstone (1929-2005) décide de se consacrer à plein temps à l’art. Sans avoir de formation artistique particulière, il connaît une carrière importante composée de plusieurs expositions individuelle et de groupe. Toutefois, il se fait surtout remarquer pour ses nombreux projets en art public. Par exemple, il réalise en 1972 la sculpture-fontaine Female Landscape, implantée sur l’esplanade de la Place Ville-Marie, à Montréal. Quatre ans plus tard, il crée pour la tour du CN à Toronto Universal Man, une sculpture de bronze d’une hauteur de 6,5 mètres.

Artwork description

The sculpture in this university atrium embodies the dynamism, movement, and energy characteristic of Gerald Gladstone’s work. The visual tension between the massing of the metal components and the apparent weightlessness of the suspended sphere is a recurring motif in his early practice.

Rarely exhibited since their creation in the 1960s, the Ellen Gallery agreed to integrate the sculpture into an important thoroughfare in Quartier Concordia.
