Item Description
"If a Cod had Wings" by Norman LaLibert
Medium: tbd
Size: 19" x 8"
Artist Statement:
Enter a landscape of symbolism and allegory, vivid colours, and evocative compositions. Echoing Marc Chagall, Rauschenberg's Combines, and Rouault, Norman LaLibert first captured the world's attention almost two generations ago after serving as the design consultant for the Vatican Pavilion at the New York World's Fair in 1964. Indeed, the eighty-eight large banners that filled the glass-walled space marked the beginning of a series of large-scale installation projects that both shaped and defined the artist's iconic career. Other major public endeavours followed, including a wall of painted aluminum panels for Terminal A (Delta Airlines) at Logan International Airport in Boston, banners for the 25th Anniversary of the Chicago Lyric Opera, and large-scale projects for the New York State Bar Association, Standard Oil, IBM, and Alcan Corporation.
