CommissionsCorporate CommissionsIn addition to his private and public commissions, Alan Sonfist also produces site-specific works for corporate commissions. Many of these are created for interior installation, connecting corporate facilities with their natural surroundings. As with all of his art, Sonfist's corporate commissions are entirely sustainable green art using existing materials from the location to expose the history of the site.
Land Art CommissionsMuch of Sonfist's life and career has been dedicated to creating site-specific, commissioned works. His art is cited for its ability to conjure and capture both the cultural and natural history of the site for which it is created. Setting a precedent with one of his first major public commissions, "Time Landscape" in New York City, Sonfist juxtaposes urban centers with a window into the area's natural history. Sonfist continues today to reinvent the primal conditions of the land that have been long since forgotten, giving the community his own brand of artistic bio-histories. |
