Over the past year, artists Paul Bartow and Richard Metzgar have built and manned a two-person structure in the Sculpture Park, the Morphology Field Station for Sensing Place, as a hub for their ongoing research into deCordova's site. Now, in the Museum's Dewey Family Gallery, they unveil their findings in a large-scale installation that is at once a living archive and reinterpretation of the Museum's physical, historical, geological, and conceptual landscape. The installation is titled Stratimentation: Investigations of a Metamorphic Landscape, a fabricated, composite term that hints at the layered and changing notions of time that can co-exist in a single place: historical, geological, and biological time are all compressed and stratified in a given site in the simplest forms of people, rocks and plants. In Bartow + Metzgar's hands, these layers unfold in virtual and physical space. Free with museum admission Location: DeCordova Sculpture Park 51 Sandy Pond Rd, Lincoln, MA |
