Sculpture Month Houston’s curated site-specific installations tie into the accumulation of ideas currently percolating throughout the art world in such events as Documenta and the Venice Biennale. SMH participates in this dialogue by providing artists with an opportunity to be challenged to create site-specific installations in unique architectural venues

Thank you to Volker Eisele, Antiartica Black, and Tommy Gregory and everyone who coordinated, installed, and volunteered to make Sculpture Month Houston and especially the exhibition of Peak Shift possible. Peak Shift opened on October 13, 2018 inside the old rice silos at SITE Gallery Houston. I am so thankful to the many people who were part of a Team Event Horizon as we installed three silos with four curved walls adding up to over 60 feet in length and approximately 15,000 reused, donated CDs and DVDs!

This is a video recap of the 2018 exhibit.
Sculpture Month Houston (SMH) is a city-wide event and was inaugurated in October 2016 at the SITE Gallery Houston at the Silos at Sawyer Yards (and throughout the City of Houston) with sculptural work by mostly Houston based artists. This is a video recap of our 2018 exhibit.

Houston Chronicle article “Sculpture Month Houston an immersive experience,” by Molly Glentzer 
“Working at SITE is not for sissies, offering artists a dark honeycomb of round, former grain silos that soar more than 80 feet. “This is a very hostile space,” Eisele said. “But the best work has always been site-specific, where the artist wrestles with it.”
