“The material basis of my sculpture is metallic opportunities. Bringing pressure to the right points, I draw the aesthetic out of the industrial process,” Richard Hunt, one of the most prolific public sculptors in the United States, wrote in a notebook decades ago.
This idea of pressure was central to Hunt’s theory about sculpture. Now that will be on full display in the late artist’s first institutional survey since his death at 88 in 2023, Richard Hunt: Pressure, at the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami.
