Los Angeles, CA – Dave Pressler, the most prolific “robot
artist” in the world, is exhibiting a full retrospective of his 20+
year career at Lancaster’s Museum of Art History (MOAH), from August
4 to September 30, 2018. The opening reception will be Saturday,
August 4, 2018 from 4pm - 6pm. The self-described “Blue Collar
Artist” has been working for over two decades in every medium,
including drawing, painting, sculpting, character design, stop-motion
animation, animatronics, and even co-creating the Emmy-nominated
Nickelodeon show “Robot And Monster.” Titled “Idea to Object,”
the exhibit will map out the narrative of Pressler’s career, divided
into sections focusing on each different medium he’s worked in and
how he made his ideas a reality. “I don’t look at this exhibit as
just a retrospective on all the work I’ve done,” says Pressler.
“What I really want it to do is de-mystify the creative process and
demonstrate to people that art is just doing the work to take the
ideas in your head and bring them into the physical world. There is a
way for you to create them for a living.” “Pressler’s work
appeals to audiences of all ages,” says Andi Campognone, Director of
MOAH. “His work is a great example of the combination of strong
contemporary concepts and expert craft, and we are so excited to
exhibit his work for both the Lancaster and Greater LA communities.”
“Idea to Object” will be on view from August 4 to September 30,
2018, with an opening reception on Saturday, August 4 from 4pm - 6pm.
