Alan Shields
Alan Shields, at Greenberg Van Doren.
Dance Bag, 1985
I've been loving his work since first seeing it in the High Times, Hard Times show at the Weatherspoon.

1980-81
He was into Buckminster Fuller's dome-style architecture and was imagining work built for future geodesic dome houses, spaces without conventional flat walls.
