Join us for an Artist Talk from Kurt Steger on Sunday, July 5 from 2-3pm.
Kurt Steger has been a carpenter, woodworker, and sculptor for over four decades. He brings a high level of craftsmanship, design, and ingenuity to his creations, which in turn express his concern for the environment and humanity. His work has many influences, from Shamanism to Buddhism to Western psychology. Steger’s accomplishments include an installation in Sacramento City Hall in Sacramento, CA, a traffic circle sculpture in Grass Valley, CA, and an interactive sculpture and healing ceremony conducted at the Smithsonian Museum of American Art in Washington D.C., honoring the ten-year anniversary of 9/11.
Steger's work is in private, public, and museum collections, and he received a NYFA Sculpture Grant in 2017. He teaches woodworking to adults, and recently started a woodworking program for children in which he emphasizes the importance of working with one’s hands. His current and most ambitious sculptural project is the creation of his home sculpture garden, including a studio that he designed and built.
Ligenza Moore Gallery and Sculpture Garden is located at 78 Trout Brook Rd in Cold Spring, NY.
