The landscape is not what it once was, a solidly rooted construct. Victoria Haven’s version cuts to the bone. She uses a scalpel to draw a relief pattern of its outlines in paper, Mylar and cut steel with polished nickel plate. The results hang an inch or so from the wall, casting shadows.

\"haven_If-all-in-all-is-true_sm.jpg\"<\/a><\/span>The ecstasy of geometry: Ellsworth Kelly meets Robert Irwin. Haven finds new music in the old bones of their ideas. In her current exhibit at Greg Kucera<\/a>, a new wrinkle. Haven stretched rubber bands into patterns and photographed the results. The silky slide between form and space, between object and its shadow, blurs the boundaries she so carefully articulates and challenges.<\/p>\n

Through May 16.<\/p>\n

I’d love to see her work paired with Peter Millett’s<\/a>. <\/p>\n
