Review: Jaume Plensa at the Nasher 2/8


It looks wrong, but it's not. The elongation of that stone face is not the fault of the photo. Contemporary Spanish artist Jaume Plensa deliberately distorts his busts of young women like that. And it's those alabaster heads -- eleven of them, six feet tall -- that are the fascinating achievements in his new show, Genus and Species, at the Nasher Sculpture Center.
