The Art of the Brick
Nathan Sawaya
The Lancaster Museum of Art will host one of our most intriguing, family-friendly exhibits of the year. The Art of the Brick is scheduled to be at the Museum from April 7-May 20 and features the work of Nathan Sawaya, a professional LEGO® artist and former LEGO® Master Model Builder with a gifted skill set that he’s been
honing since the age of five.
His work is obsessively and painstakingly
crafted and is both beautiful and playful. Sawaya’s ability to transform LEGO® bricks into something new, his devotion to scale and color perfection, the way he conceptualizes the
action of the subject matter, enables him to
elevate an ordinary toy to the status of art.

Feathers, Fins Fur and Folks
Tom Kloss
Paradise artist Tom Kloss will fill the South Gallery with carved and painted wood and metal sculptures of fish, animals and people in his exhibit Feathers, Fins, Fur and Folks. His subject matter is based upon life experiences and observations that encompass wit, whimsy, humor: the sly, dry, ironic and sometime thesardonic, sarcastic or absurd. Kloss’ fascination with colorful birds and fish is the result of college ornithology courses and his love of traveling to the tropics. Kloss’ sculptures of people come from observing all types, ages and characters

FULL CIRCLE
Carol Toner Shane & Matthew Fine
FULL CIRCLE will feature the colorful paintings of Washington Boro artist Carol Toner Shane and glass and stone sculptures by Matthew Fine, a Norfolk, Virginia artist. Toner Shane’s works, created between 1997 and 2007, include studies of the perfect circle with its uninterrupted edge, the semi-circle with its open ended possibilities and all the variations in between. Fine will exhibit glass and stone sculptures that draw their inspiration from quarry formations. Starting with hand poured glass shapes he uses a diamond saw and a hand chisel to carve lines and patterns onto the glass and stone surfaces.
