Summary: | Over the past five decades, New York-based sculptor Melvin Edwards (born 1937) has produced a remarkable body of work redefining the modernist tradition of welded sculpture. Working primarily in welded steel, Edwards is perhaps best known for his Lynch Fragments , small-scale reliefs born of the turmoil of the Civil Rights Movement. Beyond the Lynch Fragments , Edwards' oeuvre encompasses larger sculptures, installations, public projects, drawings, studies and prints. <br>Published on the occasion of a major retrospective originated by Nasher Sculpture Center, Melvin Edwards: Five Decades presents a richly illustrated examination of Edwards' career, featuring more than 90 works and numerous unpublished photographs from the artist's archive. |
