Marc Quinn
Viewing exhibitions from 2004

Flesh
Solo Exhibition
01 July 2004 – 26 September 2004
Irish Museum of Modern Art

The exhibition presents 14 new sculptures cast, in this instance, from the meat of various animals. Despite this new medium, Quinn's recurring themes - of life and death, heroism and suffering and man's physical and psychological boundaries - persist to powerful effect.

The Overwhelming World of Desire
Solo Exhibition
03 June 2004 – 30 August 2004
Tate Britain

A giant sculpture of an orchid outside Tate Britain. Overwhelming World of Desire” (Paphiopedilum Winston Churchill Hybrid).

The Complete Marbles
Solo Exhibition
10 January 2004 – 28 February 2004
Mary Boone Gallery

Quinn's The Complete Marbles, a suite of sculptural portraits of amputees and disabled individuals in sparkling white marble allude to fragmented Greco-Roman statuary while slyly addressing heroism.
