In the Contemporary Gallery at Nassau County Museum of Art
No longer just for child's play, plastic toy building bricks have become material for fine art. The New York sculptor, Nathan Sawaya, is among the most prominent of contemporary artists working with LEGO blocks. Sawaya's work, exploring themes of identity, elevates brick art to a new phase of artistic expression through large-scale sculptures that portray complexities of the human condition. Nathan Sawaya: Recent Works is organized by Elaine Berger for the museum's Contemporary Collectors Circle in cooperation with the Agora Gallery in New York.
