Description

Installation by Margaret Cogswell, Inside Yoknapatapha, installation, wood, steel, concrete, bluestone, beeswax and tar, 30' h x 28' x 22', 1992). The image illustrates an earlier body of work in Margaret Cogswell's career: her abstract constructions of the 1990s, which combined natural and human-made materials, roughness and sophistication, and influences from postminimalist sculpture, literature and Japanese culture. This installation was inspired by the novels of William Faulkner, and consisted of a visceral environment of five separate elements composed of wood, steel, concrete, bluestone, beeswax and tar that evoked the volatility of nature and the layerings and conflicts of societies. This work was publicly exhibited in prominent exhibitions, and discussed in major art journals and daily press publications.

Purpose of use

The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating an early body of work in Margaret Cogswell's career in the 1990s, when she gained attention for abstract constructions exploring tensions between natural and human-made materials, roughness and sophistication. These works were influenced by modernist and postminimalist sculpture, literature and Japanese culture, and explored arrangement and juxtaposition of materials to give form to interior moments and spaces that were often hinted at through evocative titles. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to understand this key early body of work, which brought Cogswell initial recognition through coverage by major critics and publications, museum commissions and exhibitions. Cogswell's work of this type and this series is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article.

Replaceable?
