Delusions of Grandeur -Grayson Perry at the Wallace Collection

Totally Unique Thing. AI generated image, glazed ceramic. Installed on bespoke wallpaper, designed by Perry and produced by Liberty of London

The Wallace Collection, a storied historic mansion in London that houses an extraordinary, far-ranging collection of art and objects, invited the artist Grayson Perry to embed and create an exhibition that responds to their collections. Collected during the18^th and 19^th Centuries, the museum is dripping in Rococo, houses breathtaking Old Master paintings, amour, ceramics, medieval relics and sculpture. It would be, for a lesser artist, a daunting assignment.

Gazing upon Kathleen Studebaker’s solo show at Rosemont College, one is immediately reminded of an inventor’s workshop. Puzzle-like constructions of gleaming rods, intricate gears, and nested circles radiate from central points in the sculptures, reminiscent of gyroscopes and astrolabes from a bygone era. Each sculpture is situated on a regal walnut base and many are suspended in the air by elegant arching armatures. They possess an old-world charm, but the pristine copper, bronze, brass, steel, and aluminum components suggest the vibrancy of active use.
