Dario Robleto: An Instinct Toward Life
Foreword by Adam J. Lerner. Text by Nora B. Abrams, Nathan E. Matlock.
Dario Robleto confronts the experience of war through its material remnants. Materials for his sculptures may include lead marbles used by Civil War soldiers, soldiers' letters to sweethearts and human bone dust. Robleto then expertly fashions these into improbably poignant, handmade objects such as a child's mourning dress, an audiotape and even a carafe of wine.
