Over the past year, Mangold had a couple of brushes with death, which raised the question of whether he’d even be alive to do a show. “Fortunately, I’m still involved in the series ‘Space, Time and Motion,’” muses Mangold, referencing both his current sculpture and his health struggles. “Last fall and winter, there was some concern about whether my time had ended along with my motion and space.”
But Mangold pulled through, and his impressive exhibit opens October 2 with a reception from 6 to 9 p.m. both inside and outside Artyard, 1251 South Pearl Street. The show, whihc continues through December, includes some sculptures Mangold was working on when he was stricken, plus a group of just-completed pieces. “I am pleased to have finished new works,” Mangold says, “but I’m most pleased to be looking at the grass from the green side.” And we should all be pleased to be looking at this exhibit.
