Description

Separate United Forms by David Schafer (Huntington Hospital, Pasadena, California; cast bronze, concrete, in-ground lighting sculptures; 7.5' x 12.5'; platform: 20' x 40'; 2009). The image illustrates a key late body of work in David Schafer's career—his public art projects of the later 2000s that often displayed an increasing embrace of technology, including digital processes and sampling culture, in order to restage sociocultural forms and themes. This permanent work is prominently, publicly exhibited and has been discussed extensively in art journals, books, and daily press publications.

Purpose of use

The installation image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key body of work in David Schafer's career: his public art projects of the later 2000s that often displayed an increasing embrace of technology, including digital processes and sampling culture, in order to restage cultural forms (in this case a "remixed" 20th-century Henry Moore sculpture), appropriated works and texts, and social themes. It also illustrates a unique method in that it used a medical hand-held, 3D body scanner to appropriate forms from the original marble artwork, which were digitally reconfigured and remixed into a final, biomorphic image that was cast without a physical prototype into a monumental pair of 1,500-pound bronze sculptures. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key type of digital, sampling-based art practice and the strategies it utilizes. Schafer's work is prominently, publicly exhibited and has been discussed extensively in art journals, books, and daily press publications, as well as in the article and by critics cited in the article.
