🎉 New to the collection! 🎉 Let’s welcome Mud and Stars, Gold Head (2022) by John Summers to Sheffield’s collection 💫 Crafted from a wild mix of materials, including gold leaf, glitter, glass eyes, and a giant white sock, this bold sculpture invites us to rethink the body through exaggeration, fragmentation, humour; a little horror and a lot of energy! Summers’ work challenges boundaries and folds in echoes of Goya, sci-fi and hybridity. Originally shown at the Millennium Gallery as part of These Mad Hybrids, John Hoyland and Contemporary Sculpture, Mud and Stars, Gold Head by John Summers is a memento to this landmark exhibition which has served as a striking reminder to be bold, embrace the unexpected and never be afraid to “try anything.” Last chance to see Mud and Stars, Gold Head as part of These Made Hybrids: John Hoyland and Contemporary Sculpture this weekend! 🗓 These Mad Hybrids: John Hoyland and Contemporary Sculpture 📍 Until Sun 18 May, Millennium Gallery Free entry, please donate £5 Exhibition curated by sculptor Olivia Bax with Samuel Cornish and Wiz Patterson Kelly of John Hoyland estate. 🔗 Head to our website to plan your visit: https://www.sheffieldmuseums.org.uk/whats-on/these-mad-hybrids-john-hoyland-and-contemporary-sculpture/ (fb)
