Big Risks: Creative Discoveries presents sculptures by Peter Strasser at the landmark GARNER Arts Center in the Historic District in Garnerville, NY. The material Peter Strasser works with is big, really big. And while the endeavor to create something from a whole cut tree requires taking risks that might not turn out as anticipated, the possibilities can be endless.
ArtsWestchester has awarded Peter Strasser the 2019 Arts Alive Individual Artist grant. This show will feature a number of large new abstract sculptures created from locally sourced trees that had fallen and were salvaged specifically for this show. Strasser creates his massive sculptures using a sawmill and reimagines his work with the existing organic shape of his milled timbers, while maintaining the integrity of the beautiful living spirit of the tree. For this exhibit he will be cutting large shapes in selected timber slabs that hold up to the exterior elements. Adding old timber joinery and marrying different shapes into abstract sculptures will be pleasing to the eyes and hopefully to the soul of the tree. This newer process is engineered so that the heavy slabs can be deconstructed and transported a bit easier than a solid wood mass.
You are invited for an artist’s Opening Reception on May 2nd, 2020 2:00 – 5:00pm. More Info
