Fred Sandback (Bronxville, New York, 1943 – New York, 2003) is considered one of the greatest exponents of Minimal Art.
Fred Sandback broke with the idea that the sculpture should be a solid element and transform it into an ethereal thing, due to the use of acrylic and very thin metallic yarn. He laid off all kind of content and opted for the pure presence, for the simplicity of the sculpture shape. Thus, the works by Sandback evoke a fragile architecture that seems to be, almost, intangible.
