Darryl Lauster, Art and Art History
October 23, 2013

Mr. Lauster will speak about his sculpture, Reach, which was UT Arlington’s first commissioned public outdoor sculpture. Located on the Janet and Michael Greene Research Quadrangle in front of the Engineering Research Building, the 20-foot-tall sculpture is based on Helical Aerial Screw, Leonardo da Vinci’s 15th-century sketch for a gyroscopic flying machine.

Darryl Lauster is an Assistant Professor of Intermedia/Sculpture at the University of Texas at Arlington. He has exhibited nationally in many museums and galleries. He is the recipient of the President's Award for Excellence in Teaching, and founder of the Samuel Gray Society, an institute dedicated to 18th-century American history. His work is based in the research of American history and mythology and utilizes digital media, printmaking, sculpture and installation.
