Says NUVO of John Himmelfarb, The Road Ahead Leaves a Trail Behind:

Himmelfarb’s installation consists of an orange steel sculpture of an army tank-like machine that feels rugged and quizzically useful, presented in front of a backdrop of decrepit found fuel tanks and barrels. The contrast of the gleaming, new metal object with the metallic wasteland is striking, and there is great beauty contained within both parts of the installation. The wasteland backdrop and the sculpture are both quite intriguing in the gallery setting. One quip: White walls would have given far better emphasis to the installation than the gray the artist chose.

Artist John Himmelfarb, currently exhibiting in IDADA’s TURF Pavilion exhibition, will present a lecture on his art and process.
