Albert is the author of an artist autobiography titled, “An Artist’s America” (Henry Holt, 2008) and is nationally known for making collage artworks from Cereal boxes & other printed cardboard consumer brand packages. His work has been described as across between Pop Art, Cubism & Recycling.
He will be bringing his nationally renowned “Modern Pop Art Experience” Art programs to over 85 cities in 11 states this summer, and this will be his first visit with his art program to Block Island! Join us on Thursday, July 27th from 4-6 on the library lawn!
Come meet the artist, enjoy an artist talk and presentation, and participate in a hands-on collage workshop where participants get to create their own collages using the same materials Mr. Albert uses to create his serious works of art, and the 2-hour program finishes with a FREE POSTER GIVEAWAY & SIGNING – Mr. Albert brings about 20 different prints (which he has self-published in limited quantities) for the each participant to choose from as a special gift for coming to the event.
