SCULPTURE EXHIBIT
Kenny Schuyler will show his steel sculptures in the windows of the Art Alliance for the month of September. Schuyler’s sculptures begin with found pieces that already suggest something human; a gesture, a posture, a personality. He collects and studies them, then s fitting pieces together until the right combination reveals itself. Schuyler says it feels less like building an object and more like cracking a code. By the time steel reaches the scrapyard, it already has a history, character, and story. He tries to see what is already there and bring that story forward.
The main gallery space will show work by members on the theme Imagine. An Artists’ Reception will be held Saturday, September 19, 6-8 PM. The public is invited to attend. The exhibition is on view from September 12th to September 26th , Tuesday – Saturday, 12-4 PM. Free of charge. Art Alliance of Monmouth County, 33 Monmouth Street, Red Bank.
