Gathered in this retrospective are fifty years of artistic output that trace the evolution and adamant commitment of one of the most radical and egalitarian proponents of art in the twentieth century. Carl Andre redefined the parameters of sculpture and poetry through his use of unaltered industrial materials and irreverent approach to language.

Carl Andre: Sculpture as Place, 1958–2010 is the first retrospective to consider the full spectrum of his art. Organized along a loose chronology to construct modes of looking, the exhibition unfolds over six galleries and is grouped into three parts: sculpture, poetry, and his unclassifiable productions, from the enigmatic assemblages known as Dada Forgeries to his wide-ranging ephemera.
