    Tony Tasset’s Crow silently surveils its domain. A shadowy totem of dystopian modernism, this limited edition, powder coated aluminum sculpture is based upon a monumental work Tasset created for his solo exhibition The Weight, at Kavi Gupta gallery in Chicago, in 2020. For this exhibition, Tasset mined the innermost provinces of the contemporary human psyche, responding to the anxiety of our times with wit, gravitas, and salt-of-the-earth sagacity. Working in his western Michigan studio like an aesthetic Dr. Frankenstein assembling an assortment of Post-Modernist monsters—part Woody Guthrie, part Robert Crumb, part Jeff Koons, part Louise Bourgeois—Tasset concocted a confident, unified sculptural statement he describes as “a reckoning; an apocalyptic mixtape.”

    “My art has always responded to the cultural moment, the current zeitgeist,” says Tasset. “The Weight was made in response to the current state of the world. Things are heavy.”

    As Tasset’s large-scale Crow eerily foretold the coming Covid era, which began just weeks after the sculpture debuted, this limited edition, smaller-scaled Crow feels like a perfect sentiment for the Post-Covid era, as we all carry a hint of Tasset’s subtle dystopian wit with us, wondering exactly what happened to us, and watching suspiciously for what may be coming next.
