"Old black wheelbarrow, w/rocks painted gold"

Exhibited: L.A. Italian Consulate ca.'89: Contemp. Italian Artists; Laguna Art Museum 1998-9 "Life Lessons: How Art Can Change Your Life"

I was introduced to "minimal art" by Germano Celant's 1969 book "Art Povera". This book helped us to look at ordinary things in different ways. What is brought into play by this old wheelbarrow makes it truly full of riches.
