This Exhibit Pays Homage To Scott Burton’s Legacy<\/h1>\n\n\n

Cut short by an untimely death in 1989 at age 50, American artist Scott Burton\u2019s 20-year career crossed over myriad genres: from sculpture, pho\u00adtography, drawing, performance, and video to art criticism, curation, and collecting. This legacy is examined in \u201cScott Burton: Shape Shift,\u201d taking over all six galleries and the outdoor courtyard at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation<\/a> in St. Louis through February 2. Among the exhibit\u2019s more than 100 pieces, some of which Burton referred to as \u201csculp\u00adture in love with furniture,\u201d is his 1980 Aluminum Chair that pays homage to the Adirondack version, 5-ton granite Rock Settee from 1988, and Five-Part Storage Cubes, 1982, in a rainbow palette. Inde\u00adpen\u00addent curator Jess Wilcox penned the show\u2019s pro\u00advoc\u00adative title, alluding not only to the breadth of Bur\u00adton\u2019s work but also the reality of life as a gay man who died from an AIDS-related illness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
