Brideshead 2010 - Plastic china, ribbon, silicon, flowers, flock, flies, basket, beads
Just visited Alex Da Corte's studio with about 15 other people. There were about 20 assemblages (sculptures) in various stages of completion. Very strong work.
Was there for about 45 minutes. Had a cup of coffee and lots of laughs. His work has a wonderful sense of humor... left the studio with a very positive feeling.
Addendum/Postscript: After thinking about the Sat. studio visit, kept trying to remember where I had met Alex Da Corte and seen his artwork before. Just remembered, saw his one-day Pinata Piece at ICA a few years back and had a short conversation with him just before this video was taken.
Note:
Alex Da Corte will be in group show opening Dec. 16th at Jolie Laide Gallery (Philadelphia)
