George Rickey... Works: Movie Explores Kinetic Sculpture in Motion


A native of South Bend, Indiana, artist George Rickey spent years painting and studying art before he became enamored with kinetic sculpture. The artist began to create systems of motion for his sculptures that responded to the slightest variation in air currents during the mid-twentieth century. George Rickey developed a number of large-scale kinetic sculptures for public commissions all over the world. In addition, he populated his own New York studio grounds with his sculptures.

A new movie, George Rickey… Works, explores the works of the artist and includes interviews with the sculptor. The documentary features music by Phil Keaggy, Dave Matthews and Steve Poltz, among others.

Check out the movie website and buy the DVD or view a trailer for George Rickey… Works online.
