THE PAPER

SCULPTURE MANUAL

Curated by Mary Ceruti, Matt Freedman, and Sina Najafi

ICI

Lively and unconventional, The Paper Sculpture Show explored the nature of the art object and the identity of the artist as a traveling exhibition from 2003-07. Twenty-nine international artists and artist collaboratives each contributed a design for a three-dimensional sculpture that could be assembled out of paper by museum visitors. As many around the world are experiencing social distancing and orders to stay home, ICI is sharing the designs from The Paper Sculpture Show as a downloadable, printable, and shareable manual to take you away from your screens and recreate art experiences in domestic spaces. Interactive, nonconformist and witty, The Paper Sculpture Manual still rais-es many questions about authorship, original versus copy, art and craft, product and process, two dimensional and three dimensional objects, … Now the question is: what are YOU going to make?

Based on the traveling exhibition The Paper Sculpture Show (2003-07), curated by Mary Ceruti, Matt Freedman, and Sina Najafi, and organized by

Cabinet, Independent Curators International, and Sculpture Center.

STRAWS AND SPITBALLS Standard directions for making a straw and spitball

Choose any one of the diagrams on the facing page.

Place a strip of scotch tape inside the blue box.

Cut along the red dotted line.

Fold straw in half lengthwise so that the tape is on the inside and the stripes on the outside.

Attach a strip of scotch tape along one edge of the straw and then fold over to tape the straw shut. This ensures an airtight seal.

Place a round object such as a pencil or chopstick inside the straw and gently roll to make it more tube-like.

Cut the image of one of the artworks from the slidesheet on the next page and chew.

Place the spitball into one end of the straw.

Blow from other end, aiming at your target.

Repeat steps 7 through 9, if more spitballs are needed.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR GALLERY STAFF

The Work and the Display Stations can be constructed in a variety of ways to allow each gallery to configure an exhibition specific to its needs.

To design your gallery's Paper Sculpture Show exhibition create a scale model of the elements using sheet 3. Consider using various permutations and configurations of the Work and Display Stations as shown on sheet 2.

To Fabricate the Stations:

1. Translate your exhibit model. Since the construction drawings contain all the lines needed for all variations of the work stations, you will need to analyze which variation of Work or Display Station model you created to determine which of the lines on the construction drawings you will need to transfer to the plywood. Each Station uses one 4’X8’ sheet of 3/4" birch plywood. Use your exhibition model to determine how many sheets of plywood you will need to purchase.

2. Use the construction drawings on sheet 1 to transfer the cutting lines onto plywood sheets. Determine which of the lines in the construction drawings you will need to transfer to the plywood. Be sure to transfer ONLY the lines needed for the configuration you have chosen. Tools should include a pencil, straight edge, compass and tape measure.

3. The drawings below illustrate the cutting and assembly sequence of Station A1. To cut the plywood use a Bosch Jig saw with a U1 AO blade (or a similar jig saw and blade). Carefully plunge cut and cut out the elements. The 3/4" diameter curves allow for easy cutting. To assemble use #6 flat head drywall screws where necessary. Option: to cut the 3/4" slots, use a plunge router.
