#CHRISTMAS CALCULUS JOKES FREE#
Visiting Composite, the gallery at MoMath, is free with Museum general admission or membership. Sculpture: the work of Hans Noë is open to the general public for viewing during MoMath’s open hours, daily from 10 am to 5 pm.
MoMath wishes to thank David de Weese for his generosity in sponsoring this show. This show, curated by the veteran arts writer Lawrence Weschler, is the first time he is sharing this work with the public. After retiring, Hans built an exquisite house of his own up north along the Hudson River and started generating a singular collection of sculptures and maquettes. Though he had some success thereafter building homes for artists in the Hamptons during the fifties and early sixties, the deeply ingrained habit of never calling attention to himself worked somewhat against his success as an architect.
After many harrowing years of subterfuge and hiding, often in plain sight, he arrived in NYC where he became a protégé of and assistant to Tony Smith, the eminent sculptor and architect. Hans was born in 1928 in Czernowitz, a town of 250,000 in Eastern Europe which saw most of its population of 140,000 Jews perish. Over the past several decades, he has been compiling a remarkable body of mathematically flecked, geometrically confounding sculptural work in virtually complete secret. Hans Noë is a 95-year-old Holocaust survivor who may not be so much a hidden master as a hiding one. On temporary exhibition Sculpture: the work of Hans Noë
