Exhibition Opening Al Farrow: Wrath and Reverence
February 12, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Free and open to the public21c Louisville is excited to welcome artist Al Farrow for a discussion of our upcoming exhibition, Al Farrow: Wrath and Reverence. You’re invited to join us for an artist talk with Al Farrow beginning at 6:30pm, followed by Q&A with Chief Curator Alice Gray Stites.
About the exhibition: Al Farrow’s meticulously crafted sculptures are both haunting and mesmerizing. Through his shockingly beautiful and highly detailed sculptures of churches, synagogues, mosques, mausoleums, Jewish ritual objects and Christian ‘casket’ reliquaries, all rendered from munitions, Farrow examines the abiding relationships between religion and violence, peace and brutality, the sacred and the unholy. Based in San Rafael, California, Al Farrow’s work has been exhibited at museums and galleries in the US and Europe, including de Young Museum, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco; The Crocker Art Museum; Cincinnati Art Museum; San Jose Museum of Art, and others.
