'THIS AND THIS AND THIS'

A machined aluminium and steel sculpture by Eva Rothschild, seen in the grounds of Jesus College, Cambs. The sculptor's write up as follows.......'A sculpture that comes in sections, separate parts whose geometrical simplicity makes them seemingly self-sufficient, were it not that the colour running along the inside of each triangular section, divides them into pairs. The black running along the outside joins them all up, like the drawing of one continuous line, ricocheting between visually startling angles...........The title says that the work is what it is, and THIS is closer to THAT.'
Eva Rothschild made a film called 'Boys and Sculpture,' where a group aged between 6 and 12 are let loose in a gallery and allowed to dismantle the exhibits and rearrange them into their own sculptures. The girls weren't left out as she visited many schools also.
