NEW YORK, NY.- Sean Kelly announced Sam Moyer and Eddie Martinez’s joint exhibition Sculpture in the Garden at The Landcraft Garden Foundation. Curated by artist Ugo Rondinone, the exhibition will be on view through October 29, 2022.

“Sam Moyer and Eddie Martinez’s sculptures focus on interactions between the animate and inanimate, between the marriage of sculpture and soil and the ephemeral quality of light, that let us see things,” says Rondinone.

The 2022 edition of The Landcraft Garden’s annual Sculpture in the Garden exhibition showcases 20 sculptures by the married couple. Moyer’s work has been installed at the center of round arbors or “rondels” crafted from locust wood harvested from the property. Ranging from four to six feet in height, Moyer’s Dependents series feature sculptures composed of joined panels held together by tension that visually mirror the act of codependency. Often understood as emotionally exploitative in human relationships, codependency is an essential condition of sculpture and architecture, which require systems of support such as joints, hinges, and counterweights in order to function.

Moyer’s Dependents sculptures from 2021 comprise two separate components: one made from aggregate concrete, the other a piece of Belgian Bluestone. Coupled by interlocking joints, inspired by traditional Japanese techniques, one cannot stand without the other.

Eddie Martinez began creating sculpture in 2013. His process begins with the collection of found objects on the beaches of the North Fork of Long Island and on the streets around his Brooklyn studio, including cardboard, wood, plastic, rubber, bottle caps, and metal grills, along with marine detritus such as old buoys and lobster traps. These raw materials are then arranged into improvised configurations and cast in bronze, transforming their presence while preserving their forms. The sculptures are finished with oil, enamel, and spray paint. While nonrepresentational, they suggest human and animal forms that parallel those found in his paintings.

During the run of Sculpture in the Garden, an exhibition of work by Sam Moyer and Eddie Martinez will open at the South Etna Montauk Foundation, Adam Lindemann and Amalia Dayan’s art foundation in Montauk, NY. Comprising new and recent work, this exhibition will open during the first week of July 2022.
