Donna Dennis

Neuberger Museum, Harrison

Coney Night Maze. A monumental sculptural installation that will be presented to the public for the first time. Rising to a height of twelve feet, the installation includes an ascending rollercoaster-like track which weaves in and out of the darkness, then descends into the distance, skimming the edge of a rock wall that runs the work's entire 27-foot length. Set in a darkened space and lit by rows of bare bulbs, the hovering Cyclone structure, with its dead ends, locked gates, and abandoned ticket booths, evokes a phantasmal nocturnal composition of compressed architecture in which the sound of a rollercoaster is heard faintly in the distance. Organized by the Neuberger Museum of Art and curated by Helaine Posner, Senior Curator of Contemporary Art, and Avis Larson, Assistant Curator. An opening reception will be held Friday evening, June 7, from 6 to 8:30pm.
