Description
Description
ALBERT PALEY: IN SEARCH OF THE SENTINEL explores the current chapter in the life and career of American sculptor Albert Paley. The program explores Paley's fusion of art and technology by detailing the creation and installation of "The Sentinel" at the Rochester Institute of Technology, a sculpture Paley calls, "my most important piece to date." Other notable works from Paley's career add further insight into Paley's sensibilities on abstract and literal form, his commitment to architecturally site-specific work and his vast knowledge of metal technology. Paley also speaks candidly about the influence of his two near-death experiences on his career. In addition, his family and colleagues reflect on Paley's art and his creative process.
