Exclamation Point (Chartreuse) 2008

Richard Artschwager's "Exclamation Point (Chartreuse)" from 2008 is a striking example of his signature style. The sculpture is composed of two elements: a hanging, elongated exclamation point and a spherical object, both rendered in a vibrant chartreuse hue. The artist's choice of this vivid color, coupled with the unconventional materials, creates a sense of playful and unexpected whimsy, characteristic of Artschwager's work, which often blurs the lines between sculpture, painting, and furniture. This artwork is a testament to Artschwager's talent for transforming everyday objects into provocative and thought-provoking art pieces.
