Wood Sculpture in Romano Gallery
October 31-December 3, 2011
From October 31, Japanese-born artist Mayumi Sarai exhibits her intensively carved wood sculpture in the Romano Gallery. She notes that the organic form of her abstract work “often refers to beauty of nature and power of life.” She adds, “The meaning of what I make often develops spontaneously through the combination of memory and the act of creating. With simple chisels and hand saws, my approach to wood is very traditional and time-consuming. Through this labor intensive work, I like to show the quiet beauty of nature and the power of life in a contemporary, visual language.”
These sculptures will be on display from October 31-December 3. An artists’ reception was held on November 3. Click here for a full listing of the new season. Gallery hours are Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. till 6 p.m.; admission to the gallery is free and open to the public. For more information, please call (908) 362-6121, ext. 0.
