HENRY LAUTZ

“I think of my sculptures as echoes from the dawn of sensibilities. My concepts grow out of an inquiry into the aesthetic content of stone objects created during the Paleolithic and Neolithic ages – a time when our ability to make forms endowed with emotional content emerged. I explore the origins of the creative act and the sources of our visual and emotional responses, probing into the relationship between contemporary expression and the first objects created by our ancestors during the Stone Age.”

Henry Lautz’s work has been exhibited in solo and group shows in museums and galleries throughout the United States, including the Oglethorpe Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia; the Vero Beach Museum of Art in Vero Beach, Florida and Axel Gallery in Palm Desert, California. His sculpture is in the collection of the Bass Museum of Art in Miami Beach, Florida.

“The color makes the hole alive and the lines sing. Very, very exciting! -- Lee Lawrence, Art Critic
