“I Beam U Channel” at the Bortolami Gallery

This exhibition is the namesake of Eric Wesley’s sculpture I Beam U Channel, a twisted 36-foot-long steel beam that was first exhibited at 356 S. Mission Road in 2015. The indexical nature of the title, alternatively read as the command, “I beam, you channel,” alludes to the curious elasticity of the rigid steel, which seamlessly transforms from an I-beam into a U-channel.
