I wished I could write more on these new, diaphanous sculptures by Nnenna Okore. The seductive allure of dematerialized, strangely biomorphic forms that seem to seize, yet ambivalent about their occupation of, the space around them. In any case, it should be a terrific show. Now that the fever of the Royal wedding is over, time to see something else...in the art gallery. The show opens at the venerable October Gallery, London May 5.
Nnenna, I hope you read this comment. You work looks just stunning in these pictures. Truly, congratulations on this exhibition. It's been awhile time since the cold of the Iowa winters, eh? I see that you are in Chicago these days and I will have to look you up and stop by to see your gorgeous work in person some time. Until then, good luck to you.
