In May Andy Moerlein presented a solo exhibition at Boston Sculptors Gallery. The work in the show, Wood Stone Poem, addressed Andy’s fascination with Chinese scholars’ rocks and explored the art of bonsai and poetry as new directions for his inspiration. In conjunction with the show, Andy held four discussions that brought art curators, bonsai experts, poets, and artists into conversations with the sculpture. These various practitioners discussed their fascination with the collection and display of stones, the cultivation of exceptional trees, the art of poetiy, and the use of ancient traditions by contemporary artiststo create work that addresses today’s world. See andymoerlein.com to hear the recorded talks.
