Tony Cragg’s work in Seeing Things at the Nasher reminded me of the iconic Old Man in the Mountain-a perfectly natural, perfectly uncanny male profile formed in a cliff face in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, where I grew up. Tourists came from everywhere to see the Old Man, ogling it in wonderment from a rest stop at the base of the mountain, snapping pictures and briefly marveling at the phenomenon before hunkering down at a nearby picnic table for a lunch of turkey sandwiches and Diet Coke.

Tony Cragg has been widely hailed as one of the leading sculptors of our time. From 1979-the year of his first solo exhibition-to the present, his work has received exceptional recognition, and the artist has been bestowed with the art world's most prestigious awards. Over the past decade, the momentum of recognition for Cragg has only accelerated, with numerous exhibitions, especially in Europe. In the United States, Cragg's work has been avidly acquired by museums and private collectors-including Raymond and Patsy Nasher-while the pace of exhibition has been somewhat slower. Indeed, Cragg's last museum exhibition in this country took place in 1990. Tony Cragg: Seeing Things, organized by the Nasher Sculpture Center, seeks to redress that imbalance. Featuring approximately 30 large- and moderately-scaled sculptures, the exhibition surveys the scope of Cragg's production over the last twenty years, including a selection of drawings, integral to the artist's process and rarely seen in this country. During that span, Cragg has been engaged in an intensive investigation of the associative potential of sculpture. His work is rightly lauded for its formal, thematic, and material diversity and draws upon the artist's broad intellectual interests in science, philosophy, history, sociology, politics, psychology, and poetry, as well as an intuitive and emotional response to form and material. The 2011 exhibition "Seeing Things" was accompanied by this lavishly illustrated catalogue featuring a new scholarly essay by Nasher curator Jed Morse.
