“Transfigurations” are distinguished, more than any other group of Vlassis’s sculptures, by their absolute strictness of lines, decisive precision of form and immaculate finish – the perfection of the construction that, due to his architectural origins, projects the direct relationship between the sculpted form and its material. These works clearly belong in the field of minimalist sculpture by Richard Serra<\/a>, Ronald Bladen<\/a>, Anne Truitt<\/a> or John McCracken<\/a>. Even though in danger of getting lost in their constructional logic – that climaxes here – and of passing into Vlassis’s familiar field of design, they nevertheless succeed in making the economy of means their subject. And with their expressive allusion to avoid barren aestheticism. These transformed sculpted surfaces invite the gaze to solve the riddle of the path which they propose and offer as reward the discovery that the solution lies in the certain beauty of their splendid simplicity.<\/p>\n Elizabeth Plessa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the “Transfigurations of the Ruled Surface” Dimitris Vlassis’s new group of sculptures, the surfaces are called ruled because they are born from the movement of a straight line. No longer as a memory, but as a dream of movement rolling over the clean planed forms of smooth wood, firm steel, glossy painted iron sheet and transforming them.<\/p>\n First presentation in the exhibition \u00abTransfigurations\u00bb Spyromiliou Arcade-City Link,Athens,<\/p>\n October 2011<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4800,"template":"","meta":{"pgc_meta":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"product_cat":[398,401],"product_tag":[3006,2776,3009,2764,2419],"class_list":{"0":"post-3644","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-collections","7":"product_cat-sculpture","8":"product_tag-dimitris-vlassis-en","9":"product_tag-reservation","10":"product_tag-sculpture","11":"product_tag-stainless-steel","12":"product_tag-transformations","14":"first","15":"instock","16":"taxable","17":"shipping-taxable","18":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n
