Signal by Lee Malerich

Check out our newest show in the Ross Gallery!

As an artist and art teacher, Malerich’s goal is to foster an environment where the art maker and the viewer can think outside of the box. Using reclaimed objects such as bookcases, instruments, and discarded furniture, Malerich finds numerous methods and compositions in each of her sculptures.   

Viewers will be treated to a variety of pieces, including “Telegraph Hill,” comprised of assemblage art inspired by personal experience. Malerich’s intuitive approach to art making can be seen throughout the exhibit as she wipes away the time-honed tradition of searching for a formal compositional elements, requiring the viewer to deeply consider the work in front of them. What is it made of? How is it put together? What is the possible significance of the materials and three-dimensional composition?
