ARTIST TALKS: Sunday, August 19, 2pm

Albert Costanzo's detailed renderings of planes, runways, trains, storm systems, and the occasional satellite dish are inspired by imagination and his 35-year career at the Pentagon. His dynamic cityscapes are tucked inside botanical pods that sustain micro-humans and ecosystems few of us know about. Costanzo, born in West Point, NY in 1959, is a self-taught artist. He currently lives in Orange, VA and creates his art at the Milk River Arts studio in Richmond, VA. His work has been acquired for 1708 Gallery's Cabin Fever, Artspace Gallery's Within Reach, and the Quirk Hotel collection. Pentagon Papers is his first solo exhibition.
