WORKS on the WALL
David Barthold
Exhibit Extended Through October 23

David Barthold

is multi-media artist at Gowanus Studio Space on 7th Street In the Gowanus.  His work draws heavily from the architecture, signage, street art and industrial character of the area, as well as from popular culture and historical sources.  A lifelong printmaker, Barthold often transposes print effects onto his sculptures, freely creating individual parts which are later assembled spontaneously into finished works.<br>

Barthold is a 1981 graduate of Oberlin College, and studied engraving with Stanley William Hayter at Atelier 17 in Paris.  He has lived with his family in Park Slope for the past 27 years, and is employed as a teacher at Clara Barton High School.  Barthold also teaches adult students at Manhattan Graphic Center, now located at Powerhouse Arts.

His work is included in many collections, including the New York Public Library, The National Archives in Washington, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
