A Sequence of Events
2024
A Sequence of Events unfolds as a sinuous vertical form in stainless steel and urethane, rising to over two meters in a composition that feels simultaneously architectural and organic. Brad Howe constructs the piece through a handmade process that preserves the subtle evidence of human touch within an otherwise precise industrial material, creating a tension between control and spontaneity that defines his sculptural language. The interplay of reflective steel surfaces and urethane coloration shifts with changing light conditions, ensuring the work reads differently across the hours of a day and the seasons of a year. Howe conceived A Sequence of Events as a work built to endure outdoors through all four seasons, and the engineering behind the piece matches its aesthetic ambition. The materials and construction are suited to year-round exterior placement, making this an exceptional candidate for a private garden, terrace, or institutional landscape where its vertical presence can anchor a broader spatial environment. At the same time, the work carries equal authority indoors, where its scale commands attention without overwhelming a generous interior. Now in his fourth decade of studio practice, Howe has developed a following among collectors who value sculpture that operates at the intersection of geometric abstraction and expressive craft. A Sequence of Events, produced in 2024 and offered through DEAN PROJECT, is signed by the artist and represents a mature articulation of the formal concerns that have long distinguished his work. Its unique status places it firmly within the category of singular acquisitions, objects that not only enrich a collection aesthetically but hold enduring significance as examples of considered, handmade sculpture at meaningful scale.
