Artist Lecture: Sculptor Carl D’Alvia
March 22, 2023 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm CDT
Sculptor Carl D’Alvia will present a public lecture on his art on Wednesday, March 22 at 3:30 p.m. in the Camellia Room of Gorgas Library on UA campus.
Connecticut- and New York-based Carl D’Alvia works in a sculptural idiom that is decidedly hyper-visual, artisanal and history laden. He has developed proprietary sculptural processes that co-opt existing means of traditional and industrial production. Drawing on sources that include megalithic monuments, toy design and the Baroque, the work encapsulates seemingly antithetical motifs such as minimal/ornate, industrial/handmade, comic/tragic, progress/destruction and attraction/repulsion.

Carl D’Alvia’s lecture is part of the Visiting Artist and Scholar Lecture Series, sponsored by the UA Department of Art and Art History.
