dc.description | Detail, etched, frosted glass and wood dancing human form; The intended reference for this piece is French Dada artist Marcel Duchamp's monumental glass work, The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even (The Large Glass) (1923), in which a narrative is partly illustrated by similar abstract figures, representing nine prospective bachelors. Averbuch makes indoor and outdoor sculptures in different combinations of common building materials; stone, wood, metal, and glass, frequently recycled. He likes to juxtapose heavy, chunky materials with light fragile materials, appearing to defy gravity.
