HELÈNE AYLON
two sacs on route
1985–2020
Bridge of Knots, Berkeley Art Museum, 1995
Aylon’s work like that of another artist whom one does hear about quite often, Joseph Beuys, operates in an undefinable space between art and activism, between the investigation of aesthetic forms and processes and the practice of a moral and engaged social life.
—Larry Rinder, Director of the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, on the occasion of the exhibition of Aylon's Bridge of Knots in 1995.
