Show from New Mexico

David Lobdell, who teaches at New Mexico Highlands University, came out to Scottsdale for the iron pour we just hosted. He brought an installation of his own sculpture, which is currently on display in the Scottsdale Community College Art Building Lobby. Here is a mini-tour of the work. Just before I shot this, an elderly man who was examining the artwork closely asked me if the zeroes and ones etched into one of the pieces represented computers. He had some great comments on the work and what he thought it might mean, but he didn’t want to be on camera.

    Really wonderful pieces. Would love to have seen them ‘in the flesh’.

    Did you notice the first piece had dirt in it from all over the world? Hendrix’s grave, Graceland, MLK’s yard, Picasso’s yard ….

  3. Robert Says:

    Wow…no I didn’t. Just rewatched it. Now I see. What a brilliant idea.

  4. David Says:

    Very very neat. I love the concept of the pieces. They are almost like little pods or eggs holding the skeletons.
