Aaron T. Stephan, Site Specific at the Farnsworth Art Museum

 This evening I sat in on an artist talk at the Farnsworth with artist Aaron T. Stephan.  Aaron is one of what is titled "Four in Maine" who's work is on display on the Farnsworth lawn.  A series of columns aligned in an array that makes one's senses feel as if you are on a roller coaster, fabulous and that's not all.  Artists fascinate me - just ask Eric Hopkins!  Below is Aaron's installment at the FAM.

Aaron fashioned these books into shoes and do you think he actually wore them?  Yes he did and he even walked a mile on top those boots!  Must have been difficult at best!

This next piece of work is a set of the Encyclopedia Britannica wrapped around over and over.  Aaron said he bought the set for $15 dollars and it took him a year to wrap the pages into this design.  One of my very favorites.

The show runs at the Farnsworth through December 31, 2010...please visit!
