Paradise Center for the Arts announces the Marv Kaisersatt's display of
woodcarvings
Faribault, MN- January 2009 - Paradise Center for the Arts, a
multi-purpose art center located in Faribault, MN, is pleased to
announce an exhibition of the "Marv-elous" woodcarvings of Marv
Kaisersatt. Humorous, smart, funny, charming and amazing - words that
apply equally to Marv and his work.
Each small vignette is carved from a single piece of basswood (Marv's
"signature") and tells a story: The window that doesn't QUITE fit into
the space made for it by the bricklayers; the fishermen who reel in a
fish twice the size of their boat; or the dragon whose flaming breath
lights the cigarette of the female knight on her horse.
Born in 1939 in Montgomery Minnesota, Marv chose to make his career from
yet another area in which he excels: math. As a teacher in the Faribault
school system for nearly 30 years, Marv has been carving for even
longer. In 2007, Marv held his first, and, he insisted at the time, last
exhibit of his work. However, some well-placed wheedling leveraged his
insuppressible enthusiasm and a second show will run from February 20 -
March 28th, 2009. This second exhibit will showcase new work as well as
some of his "classic" pieces as well as his "rejects." Interactive,
educational, and fun, Marv Kaisersatt's February exhibit at the Paradise
will inspire and fascinate. This show will also include original
drawings, an interactive "Name That Piece" element, and answers to FAQ's
that Marv gets about his work.
An artist reception for Marv will take place February 20, 5:00 - 7:00pm.
The public is invited to attend, and we look forward to hearing Marv
talk about his exhibit, his ongoing work, and future plans.
