Kinetic Sculpture 1971

"Kinetic Sculpture" (1971) by George Rickey (1907-2002) is a prime example of the artist's signature style: minimalist, geometric forms in motion. The sculpture consists of two large, metallic panels that are suspended and move gently in the wind, creating a dynamic visual experience. Rickey's kinetic sculptures are designed to interact with their environment, inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay of light, shadow, and movement. This particular piece, with its reflective surfaces, also captures and reflects the surrounding cityscape, further blurring the lines between art and its context.
