Kenneth Snelson’s monumental metal sculptures and panoramic photographs defy gravity and confound perception. He developed his patented tensegrity structural technology while studying at Black Mountain College with R. Buckminster Fuller. Snelson’s large-scale abstract sculptures, composed of seemingly weightless cables and tubes suspended in tension, are in prominent international public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art. Snelson also produced expansive photographs of New York City using a Cirkut camera, which records a 360-degree view in a single frame. In 1981, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden staged a retrospective of his work, and in 1999, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Sculpture Center.
