Ex Stasis, Modern sculpture at Marquette University, Milwaukee, US.
Ex Stasis is a sculpture at Marquette University made from aluminum and stainless steel, featuring geometric forms that rise from a concrete base. The work occupies space near the Alumni Memorial Union with its angular metallic structure.
Richard Lippold created this work originally for the 1988 Venice Biennale under the direction of curator Luigi Carendente. The sculpture was later relocated to Marquette University, where it found a new home on campus.
The sculpture demonstrates the intersection of industrial design and artistic expression through its mathematical precision and metallic composition.
The sculpture is located in front of the Alumni Memorial Union on the Marquette University campus and is publicly viewable during daylight hours. You can access it freely as the campus maintains open areas for visitors to walk through.
The work contains gold-plated cables woven throughout its metal structure that catch light and change appearance as the day progresses. These fine elements create visual contrast against the larger geometric shapes.
