Like
other spiral galaxies, the Milky Way Galaxy, has a
bright disk of stars with sweeping arms of conspicously younger,
brighter, and bluer stars enveloped in gas and dust that curve around its center like the arms of a huge pinwheel.
The Scottish Modern Art Gallery's new retrospective is his first UK show in two decades, and begins spectacularly in the grounds, where the
bright yellow - painted bronze «Declination» (2004), a huge bottle form metamorphosed in combination with
other vessels into an abstract push - and - pull dynamic, echoes the twisting energy - plus - elegance of Charles Jencks's permanent landscape
spiral.
