Art Exhibit: “The Many Faces of Richard Gachot”

“The Many Faces of Richard Gachot”, a major survey of the artist’s found object sculpture, will be shown at the Art League of Long Island from August 28th through September 25th.

This exhibition brings together an extraordinary collection of major works that feature his signature style.

An opening reception on Sunday, September 18th from 3:00 to 5:00 pm includes a talk by Franklin Hill Perrell of the Roslyn Landmark Society on Gachot's art.

Gachot’s works typically depict people, animals, insects, flowers, and narrative compositions arising out of groupings of such figures, all made out of found objects, altered, modified, or re-combined in unexpected ways to create the artist’s unique characters and personalities. Part of the fun is to recognize what the materials were before Gachot worked his magic.

The gallery is open Mon-Fri from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. and Sat and Sun 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

Admission is free; donations are appreciated.
