Press Release

Mel Katz continues his work in anodized aluminum in Wall Sculpture. Throughout his career, Mel Katz has created works that address architectural and anamorphic shapes alike. Anodized aluminum, an industrial medium, bestows a satin finish with a bright, saturated palette of primary colors and deep blacks. A youthful interplay in shape and contour is a hallmark of Mel Katz’s decades-long career and is vividly evident in his latest body of work.
