Kal Spelletich | Intention Machines | Opens April 11
On view April 11 – May 23, 2015, Kal Spelletich: Intention Machines features approximately seven robotic sculptures, each representing an actual person influential in Spelletich’s life and artistic career.
Several photographs of the sun, which Spelletich took with a digital camera modified with various apparati, will also be presented as part of the exhibit. In his capacities as an artist, Zen philosopher, ardent activist, inventor and musician, Kal Spelletich has spent his creative career exploring the powerful possibilities of combining art and mysticism with the rigors of science and technology. Spelletich is well known for his mechanized, fire-ensconcing robotic art, but his latest work leans away from pyrotechnics and towards a spiritual vein. This exhibit of Spelletich’s work received an outstanding advance review by Natasha Boas in SFAQ.
