Date To: 10/9/2010
Summary: Harold Balazs is one of our region’s best-known and most beloved artists. This exhibition, the second in our new Inland Northwest Masters Series, is the largest overview of the artist’s work in his over 50-year career. Comprised of major metal and wood sculpture, including two major public works removed from downtown Spokane and installed outdoors on our plaza for the run of the exhibit; two of his hand-made wooden boats,and many examples of his well-known enamel works; folk furniture; children’s toys; and a large selection of sketchbooks and handmade artist books; this exhibition is a rich and wildly varied survey of Harold Balazs’s deep, unfettered and wildly creative imagination.
