James Kalm was raised in close proximity to the West Coast, and as a result, spent much of his impressionable youth contemplating Californian art of the late 1960's and early 1970's. Perhaps not achieving the celebrity status of other members of the "Light and Space" movement, De Wain Valentine was nevertheless an acknowledged master of plastics technology, even teaching courses in the subject at UCLA. This exhibition gathers together some of his most impressive works from this historic period, giving visitors a rare opportunity to experience the beauty and ambitiously austere sculpture that has set him apart.
