I invited artists of all genders and generations to present their most innovative 2 and 3-dimensional sculptures for consideration for DEFINING FORM. After reviewing more than 600 artworks, I selected sculptures by over 50 artists that reflect new tendencies in the art form. DEFINING FORM artists defy stereotypes with inventive works that tackle contemporary culture. Traditionally highly male dominated, I was inspired by the new wave of female sculptors making their mark with works engaging feminist narratives. The artworks in DEFINING FORM explode with new ideas, vibrant colors, and display a thoroughly modern sensibility through fearless explorations of the artists and unique usage of innovative materials ranging from fabric, plastic, and foam to re-purposed and found objects including chewing gum, trash and dirt.

The proposal, which would be achieved through a rezoning of the area owned by Plaxall and others, would continue Plaxall’s longstanding commitment to, and investment in, Long Island City and the borough of Queens. “Ever since our grandparents arrived in Long Island City over seven decades ago, our family has believed in the promise of the neighborhood and invested in its future," said Paula Kirby, Managing Director at Plaxall. "Our Anable Basin proposal is intended to provide opportunities to live, work, create, and raise a family – all while honoring an industrial heritage we've long been a part of. We are prepared to continue working with our neighbors, elected officials and other local stakeholders to refine and improve the proposal through the rezoning process.” Plaxall’s Anable Basin proposal comes 70 years after Louis Pfohl, the originator of the process known as thermoforming, relocated his business to AnableBasin and the LIC waterfront.
