Sculpture
Christopher Wilmarth was an American sculptor who worked primarily in glass and steel, creating translucent architectural forms that explored light, transparency, and spatial perception. Active from the 1960s until his death in 1987, his practice emerged from postwar minimalism while maintaining a distinctive emphasis on how materials transmit and refract vision. His monumental installations and smaller wall-mounted pieces used plate glass and steel framework to create immersive environments that challenged the boundary between sculpture and architecture.
