Join Vielmetter’s Rebecca McGrew for a private walk through of the exhibition floating over the silent world, a tribute exhibition of Steve Roden’s (MFA 89) lesser known paintings, drawings and sculptures from 1990 to 2019. The exhibition marks his passing in September 2023 and showcases the artist’s visionary aesthetic. The exhibition floating over the silent world touches on moments throughout the artist’s career where Steve developed and expanded his conceptual practice. Comprising a selection of works from over three decades, it includes the surface of the moon (2001)—a key early sculptural installation which debuted in the Hammer Museum’s first Snapshot exhibition in 2001—and works on paper and paintings from the transformative series “the silent world” and “water music.” In Steven’s obituary, Los Angeles Times art critic Christopher Knight called the graduate art alumnus a “quintessential artist’s artist” widely admired by his peers, including Doug Aitken, Dan Goodsell, John O’Brien, and Stas Orlovski, along with his instructors at ArtCenter College of Design--Mike Kelley and Stephen Prina. Vielmetter Los Angeles is pleased to present the floating over the silent world exhibition concurrently with the launch of the Steve Roden Endowed Scholarship at his alma mater, ArtCenter College of Design.
