SUMMARY:Grashow at The Granite: The Cathedral
DESCRIPTION:Grashow at The Granite: The Cathedral\nOne Night Only Artistic Celebration\nThe Granite is excited to present Grashow at The Granite: The Cathedral\, an extraordinary celebration of the acclaimed artist’s journey through sculpture\, highlighting James Grashow’s magnum opus The Cathedral. \nThe heart of this event\, The Cathedral\, depicts Jesus Christ bearing the weight of an ornately carved Renaissance-era cathedral on his back\, while a tangle of demons claw at him from below. This evocative piece offers a unique perspective on the themes of man\, nature\, and mortality. \nAdjacent to The Cathedral – in the magnificent vaulted Granite sanctuary – the brilliance of Jimmy’s World will be on full\, glorious display. His unmatched ability to transform cardboard and wood into monumental works of art will come to life\, ever-challenging traditional ideas of sculpture and inspiring all to see beyond the conventional. \nGrashow at The Granite: The Cathedral showcases Jimmy’s evolution\, from his early woodcuts and sculptures\, delicate houseplants and birds\, to his latest awe-inspiring creations. The complete exhibition is a vibrant exploration of the artist’s obsession with fragility and mortality. \nThe Cathedral is on view for one night only on Thursday\, September 19 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM. \nEvent Parking and Shuttle Buses:\nBeginning at 4:30pm\, regular shuttle buses will run from parking lots at the Branchville Train Station (787 Branchville Rd\, Ridgefield) as well as from Temple B’Nai Chaim (82 Portland Ave\, Wilton). \nParking will also be available throughout Georgetown and parking attendants will direct you. \nPlease note: At this time\, the Granite is not ADA compliant and will not be in time for this event. \nRSVP Today! \nIn partnership with InSitu. \nABOUT THE ARTIST\nJames Grashow (b.1942) is an American artist who established himself early in his career\, doing woodcuts and engravings for album covers and major publications. He is best known\, however\, for his creative genius working with cardboard. Grashow’s cardboard creations include large-scale installations such as fountains and menageries; smaller\, elaborate cities and buildings amid flowers and leaves (Houseplants); and exquisitely detailed birds (Cardbirds). His works have been exhibited in museums and galleries across the country since the 1960s. \nBorn in Brooklyn\, New York\, Grashow earned his BFA from Pratt Institute. After graduation\, he spent a year in Florence\, Italy on a Fulbright Travel Grant for painting and graphics. Upon returning to the United States he continued his studies at Pratt and was awarded an MFA in 1965. Grashow made a name for himself creating woodcuts and engravings for album covers and major publications\, including Rolling Stone magazine. One of his most memorable album covers\, Stand Up\, was made in 1969 for Jethro Tull. \nGrashow’s enthusiasm for the sculptures he cuts and shapes from wood\, cardboard\, and paper-mâché is evident in the sheer volume of his various creations and his natural ability to teach his art. He has taught at Pratt Institute and Parsons School of Design in New York\, Fairfield University in Connecticut\, and at the Marie Walsh Sharpe Art Foundation in Colorado. He has received numerous awards and recognition from the Society of Illustrators\, Art Directors Club\, and American Institute of Graphics Arts. Grashow lives and works in Redding\, Connecticut. He and his wife have two children and five grandchildren. \nVisit jamesgrashow.com to learn more.
