Exclusive Episode #044: Assistant Rob van Erve during the making of Judy Pfaffs installation "Buckets of Rain" (2006) in the artists studio in Tivoli, New York. Balancing intense planning with improvisational decision-making, Judy Pfaff creates exuberant, sprawling sculptures and installations that weave landscape, architecture, and synthetic color into a tense yet organic whole. A pioneer of installation art in the 1970s, Pfaff synthesizes sculpture, painting, and architecture into dynamic environments in which space seems to expand and collapse, fluctuating between two and three dimensions.
