As part of Hammer Projects, Lavin will organize a new project approximately once a year over the next three years that will present new works by architects and designers. Greg Lynn’s Fountain is the first architecture and design project guest-curated by architectural historian Sylvia Lavin. Constructed with more than fifty-seven prefabricated plastic whale and shark teeter totters welded together and unified by the application of a white automotive paint, Fountain is a gathering place for the warm summer months. As the title suggests, the work is a functioning fountain made out of large plastic found children’s toys that have been cut and reassembled in multiple layers, with water spouting from its top and pooling at its base. A fantastical attraction for visitors of all ages, Fountain is sited in the Museum’s outdoor courtyard. The Hammer Museum presents a new sculptural work by Los Angeles-based architect Greg Lynn.
