MICHAEL FALZONE: EXAMINED explores forty years of an extremely eclectic career beginning with minimalist sculpture in the ‘70s continuing through today with “funky” collage paintings and assemblages. In the essay, Betty Ann Brown states “Falzone smartly inhabits the intersection of cubist construction, Dada installation, expressionist painting, and psychological exploration. He builds totemic figures, ‘rustic’ reliefs, and fragile collages, by simmering found materials in a smart postmodern stew and spicing them with artistic insight.”Beginning with an essay by art historian, critic and writer, Dr. Betty Ann Brown, the book is segmented into decades beginning in 1970 and chronicles the evolution of Falzone’s work over forty years. Some of the artist’s writings and statements are also included.
