Kim Adams (born 17 December 1951[citation needed]) is a Canadian sculptor who is known for his assemblages combining prefabricated elements, often parts of cars or other machine-made structures.
[9][10] In Toaster Work Wagon (1997), Adams assembled bicycles, lawn chairs, and parts of a 1960 Volkswagen bus.
[11] The Mendel Art Gallery (now amalgamated into Remai Modern) acquired Kim Adams' sculpture Love Birds (1998-2010) in 2013 composed of 11 foot tall sculptures - made from water barrels, grain-silo caps, and parts of two Ford Econoline vans.
His major work for that project was Auto Office House, permanently installed on the flat roof of a former 1950s gas station, now the Café Gasolin.
[12] More recently, his work was shown at El Geni de Les Coses, Office for Artistic Diffusion (ODA), Barcelona (2009), the 2010 group exhibition Insiders at CAPC musée d'art contemporain,[13] the 2012 Kim Adams: One for the Road show, Museum London, London, ON,[14] and at the Art Gallery of Ontario in an exhibition titled Kim Adams: Recent Works in 2013.
