Arturo A. Sandoval (UK Department of Art) was recently awarded the Kentucky Star for Visual Art.
The Kentucky Star Award is generally considered a lifetime achievement award for Kentuckians who have made significant artistic contributions. Recipients are from all art disciplines and selected by a panel of judges.
A pioneer in his field, during more than a three decade-long career Sandoval has woven a new aesthetic and a new paradigm for contemporary fiber art from non-traditional materials such as recycled computer tape, battery cable, holographic film and Lurex. His art interlaces 20th century industrial materials together in evocative explorations of such themes as terrorism, spirituality and politics. [read more].
