GARNER Arts Center at 55 W. Railroad Ave. in Garnerville presents “Tell the Truth,” a new exhibition of sculpture from environmental artist and sustainability advocate Daniel Lanzilotta, whose sculptures transcend the boundaries of sculptural meaning, interaction, movement and abstraction in his depictions of 21st Century life. He brings significance to the seemingly insignificant use of post-consumer waste to create works of art with plastic waste, detritus, rubbish, fragments of litter, trash, flotsam and jetsam. He works predominantly with plastic ocean debris and calls himself a ”˜Plastician.”™ His work is both a celebration and wake-up call about the items humans cast away in the environment. The exhibition opened May 15 and will run to June 19.
A native New Yorker, born in the Bronx, Lanzilotta holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Carnegie Mellon University. He is an artist in residence at GARNER Arts Center. His artwork has been exhibited widely on most every continent.
Gallery hours are 1 to 5 p.m. Saturdays and by appointment only all other days.
