Fred Eerdekens is a Belgian-born artist whose sculptures were featured at the Spencer Brownstone Gallery.
When I looked at these metal structures on the wall I thought they were quite beautiful. It took my 13 year old son to point out that the shadows from these images spell out words. Indeed other works by Eerdekens make use of the environment they exist in—and in more ways that is true of all art.
Their shadows are parts of the work, as integral as the metal. The works are about incorporation of language. They are intricate and a look into the modern mental landscape.
