Location: Modern Art Museum of Fort WorthType: Metal tree-like sculptures
Age: 4 years
Yet another reason to love the Modern. The museum purchased one of Roxy Pain's famous "dendroid" pieces in 2008.
"Conjoined" is now installed on museum grounds on the far side of the reflecting pool. This piece consists of two "tree-like" metal trunks that seem to reach toward one another with outstretched tendrils joining in mid-air.
The lofty, elegant form is a beautiful compliment to architect Tadao Ando's masterpiece which houses the museum, as well as a contrasting balance to Richard Serra's weighty "Vortex" located out front.
