Encompassing prints, sculpture, architecture, jewelry, and installations, Harold Balazs's work crosses boundaries and changes shape with a force that has arrested viewers since the 1950s.
Defining the art of Harold Balazs isn't easy. Encompassing prints, sculpture, architecture, jewellery, and installations, his work crosses boundaries and changes shape with a force that has arrested viewers since the 1950s. His art is a full-blown manifestation of his vision in diverse media and scale. Balazs summed up his art and his approach best when he said, "I make stuff because it's easier than not making stuff." No other North-Western artist has cut as wide a swath through the regional culture over the past fifty years as Balazs, who has been called the people's artist of the North-West. His free spirit, boundless energy and meticulous eye for detail have shaped the region's art. Balazs's work can be found in public and private collections from Spokane to Seattle and he has been heralded as the most important liturgical artist in the nation. His fine skills as a teacher can be seen in the work of many of his students, now artists and architects themselves. The voices of a dozen of these former students as well as admirers and friends are found in this book, the first publication to honour Balazs's extraordinary gifts.
His career is captured here in remarkable candour that speaks to the artist's humanity, humour and love of life.
