Dinosaurs roam New York’s Bowery
Amanita gallery in New York’s Bowery is presenting a rare exhibition pairing a John Chamberlain sculpture, *Gondola Marianne Moore* (1982), with three full, mounted Maiasaura dinosaur skeletons from the Upper Cretaceous period. The fossils, which are 62% to 85% real bone, have never before been exhibited in New York, let alone in a commercial gallery. Amanita partner Jacob Hyman emphasizes the show is not a gimmick but a serious exploration of sculpture, compression, and time, linking Chamberlain’s crushed automobile-part gondolas to the natural preservation of fossils.
