Glimpse Paul Pfeiffer’s First U.S. Retrospective<\/h1>\n\n\n

2024 Best of Year Winner for Exhibition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sports, celebrity, and roaring crowds hold focus for Paul Pfeiffer, who works in video, photography, and sculpture. Tapped to conceive the artist\u2019s first U.S. retrospective, \u201cPaul Pfeiffer: Prologue to the Story of the Birth of Freedom\u201d<\/em> at the MOCA Geffen in Los Angeles, New York studio B\u00fcro Koray Duman<\/a> divided the 22,000-square-foot museum space into a series of rooms, starting with a trio of small-scale galleries for early works and opening to a cavernous area articulated with plywood-enclosed structures reminiscent of Hollywood sound stages. The pi\u00e8ce de resistance is Vitruvian Figure<\/em>, inspired by the 2000 Sydney Olympics stadium. Whereas its real-life counterpart accommodated 100,000 spectators, the 10-foot-high facsimile, made of cast resin, aluminum, and acrylic, \u201cseats\u201d 1 million and was designed to be viewed from above, via a platform accessed by a wood-frame ADA accessibility ramp that served as one of the work\u2019s defining features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
