We visited the show "Al Wadzinski: The Greatest Show on Earth" at NY Studio Gallery @ 154 Stanton Street (@ Suffolk).
Artist Statement:
"Wadzinski creates zoomorphic assemblages using found objects of every material - valuable, mundane, cast-offs, delicate or impermeable, reclaimed from salvage yards, garage sales and alleys."
This was great inspiration for our work on our own "green projects." We have been using recycled materials to create new design. Wadzinski even stopped in to speak with us! He was really generous, answering lots of questions and signing notebooks! He said it was really wonderful to see the gallery so full of energy, just like his pieces. Students have been using newspaper and magazines to make snowflakes, beads, bracelets, mini-booklets, and more...
