‘Strain’ by Antony Gormley is one of a series of Extended Block Works, first developed in London in 2010 for an exhibition called ‘Test Sites.’ Abolishing the conventional limits of the physical body, the solid rectilinear volumes of this work have been extended in all three axes turning subjective spatial experience – front, right, left and down into objective form. Exhibited outside for the first time at Art Basel Miami Beach and with its quasi-architectural arrangement of geometric volumes ‘Strain’ provides an interesting counterpoint to the urban Miami landscape.
