Current Workspace Resident Elia Alba at Black & White Gallery
ELIA ALBA
BUSTS
December 10 – January 17, 2010
Opening reception:
Thursday, December 10, 6-8pm
Black & White Gallery
636 West 28th Street
The exhibition features 30 busts placed on pedestals to emulate a presentation of classical art and artifacts. Elia Alba transformed unique photographs she took of her close family and friends into life size head and chest sculptures. Utilizing her typical manipulation of photography, fabric, and portraiture, Elia Alba’s latest series, Busts, removes all of these elements from their usual 2-D existence and creates 3-D sculptures that convey both the materiality of the medium and the humanity of the subjects.
GALLERY HOURS:
Tuesday - Saturday, 11am - 6pm
