  • Description

    Tony Stallard's Alpha explores creativity at its source particularly in relation to public works of art. This installation will feature a collaborate piece with Dr. Nicole A. Horenstein, an Associate Professor at the University of Florida in the Chemistry Department. Stallard, who is a world-renowned public artist from England, will soon have his most recent public artwork installed on the University of Florida’s Campus. “Fullerene,” a work of steel that will soon grace the lobby of the new Chemistry Building.

    Stallard has been working in the public artwork realm for the past twenty-five years. Having studied at the Camberwell College of Arts, the Wimbledon School of Art, and at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design in Dundee, he is well versed in site specific artworks and the professional use of public art. His works, which are installed and exhibited widely, often incorporate materials such as bronze, steel, and light.
