US announces artist for the 2013 Venice BIennale


The Bronx Museum will present a Sarah Sze project at the US Pavilion at the 55th Venice Biennale.

Sze is known for her gravity-defying, minutely detailed accumulative architectures that challenge viewers to experience space in unexpected ways. "Sze's boundary-defying work engages architecture and space, challenging the viewer by reorganising reference points, disorienting and reorienting at every turn," says co-commissioner Carey Lovelace, a critic and independent curator. "Her ephemeral installations strike a balance between spectacle and poetry, with unparalleled potential to transform and invigorate the US Pavilion."
