CLICK TITTLE ABOVE FOR MORE INFORMATION


Christopher Georgesco began his career as a sculptor in Venice, California, in 1968. His first solo show was deemed an overnight success by William Wilson, critic for the Los Angeles Times and was a hit with LA collectors. Georgesco's studio is now located in the desert, and his "Male Figure of Balzac" was recently acquired by the City of Palm Springs and installed on Palm Canyon Drive. His sculpture exists in public collections such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the La Jolla Museum of Contemporary Art. This exhibition will showcase his new stainless steel sculpture as well as works from earlier in his career. Georgesco's father was a well-known modernist architect in Palm Springs, and this exhibition runs during our Palm Springs Modernism Week show (February 18-27), which will also feature a special exhibit on renowned architect Albert Frey (1903-1998), curated by Frey's companion and friend Jean Farrar, as well as the architectural photography of Leland Y. Lee.
