Directions: Jim Lambie

As part of the Directions series and for his debut show in Washington, D.C., Scottish artist Jeff Lambie transforms the museum's lobby into a lively, colorful, immersive environment that includes one of his signature taped floor pieces from his Zobop series and a group of sculptures. He is recognized internationally for his dynamic sculpture and installation works that carefully articulate and embellish readily available commodities—handbags, belts, mattresses, leather gloves, magazines, record albums, speakers, turntables, doors, mirrors and much more—to explore the interplay between vision and sound, formalism and emotion, and desire and manipulation.
