“Boldness with sensitivity is the quality I admire in art, and this is the manner in which I work. This comes through in the drawing, the color, the value and the pattern.” – Lar Landa, Italian American Artist and Sculptor
Join Lar Landa in conversation with Sheila Pierce Ortona about his lifelong career as an artist and sculptor. During this event, Landa will discuss his inspiration in the human figure as the most direct way of expressing human emotions and the human condition, and how his art evokes communication between the artist and the viewer.
Lar Landa, whose family has deep roots in Northern California, lives in Healdsburg, CA. He attended Columbia University, Universitas di Firenze and Stanford University, where he received a B.A. in art in 1955. He has served with the Board of Directors for the California Museum of Art, Luther Burbank Center for the Arts in Santa Rosa, and the Sonoma Arts Council.
His paintings and sculpture have been shown in numerous solo and group exhibitions in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco and elsewhere. His work is in private collections worldwide. Mr. Landa continues to find new inspiration from his frequent travels to Mexico, Italy and elsewhere in Europe. In 2006, the Museo featured a major retrospective of his art: “Carnivale/ 50 Years.”
