Bride Fight by E.V. Day, Aug. 2006
E.V Day. Her exhibition Bride Fight is on view in the lobby of The Lever House Art Collection from May 6 – August 26, 2006. Bride Fight, a spectacular high-tension string up of two dueling bridal gowns is E.V. Day’s most complex and most ambitious work to date. The tableau represents a manifestation of anxiety and humor, memorializing an active state of transformation of tradition.
Bride Fight developed from a series of E.V. Day's installations called “Exploding Couture,” begun in 1999, in which she suspends women’s dresses in space. Each dress portrays a view of a conventional feminine stereotype in a dramatic stop-action explosion. The “explosions” are constructed to feel as if the internal forces of the figure are so powerful that the garment literally blows off, as if it is outgrowing its stereotype. Ecstasy, strength, humor and release are emotions Day associates with the expression of these sculptures.
E.V. Day had a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum at Altria in 2001, where she installed G-Force, a work in which she suspended hundreds of thongs from the ceiling in fighter jet formations. Day had a ten-year survey exhibition last year at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art at Cornell University for which a color catalogue was produced. E.V. Day’s exhibition Intergalactic Installations is on view at the Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum From April 22 – June 18, 2006.
