Exhibit "Sculptures From the Forest"
Lanesboro Arts Center Galleries, Aug. 17-Oct. 17
2010
Description
Nationally-acclaimed Lanesboro artist Paul Lambrecht's work featuring hand-carved and painted wood sculpture at the Lanesboro Arts Center. Using nature and everyday life as inspiration for his wood sculpture, Paul creates realistic works using kiln-dried basswood, which he hand-carves, applies acrylic paint and stains, then layers on numerous coats of lacquer. This process gives the work a shine that is more suggestive of glass or fine stone than wood, engaging the viewer in an experience of wonder as they question the medium.
Time: Mon-Thur 10 am - 5 pm, Fri-Sat 10 am - 7 pm, Sun 11 am - 3 pm
