As Glenn Adamson writes in his story, Shechet’s breathtaking exhibition of monumental sculptures now on view at Storm King Art Center in Upstate New York (through November 10) is “only the latest, if possibly the greatest, evidence of Shechet’s insatiable curiosity.” The show, cheekily titled “Girl Group,” features heavy-metal sculptures made of aluminum and steel redefined by bold colors like emerald green, chartreuse, and orange.

In May, A.i.A. visited Shechet on site at Storm King as she prepared for her show to open. She talked about approaching her work with a sense of humor and sassiness, and accepting the fact that mystery is always part of her process.
