Barry X Ball: Portraits and Masterpieces
Text by Jean-Pierre Criqui, Mario Diacono, et. al. Interview by Bob Nickas.
Barry X Ball's remakes of European late Baroque and Rococo sculptures update classical portraiture for our times. This catalogue presents some of his most significant marble portraits of art-world personalities and other series. Freely derived from historical sources, but with sly revisions and tweaks, these works explore the concept of an enduring and universal sculptural language.
