RagARTz 2021, one of the world's most renowned open-air exhibitions, will run from 8 May to 31 October 2021. Around 80 artists from all over the world will be showing 400 sculptures. The opening of the 8th Swiss Triennial of Sculpture in Bad Ragaz and Valens will take place on 8 May 2021.

Global Art Source, who will be celebrating its 20th anniversary in May 2021, proudly invites you to participate at the Artist Talk with Don Porcaro. Porcaro is an American sculptor who is one of the chosen representatives exhibiting at this year’s RagARTz. It is exactly 20 years since Don Porcaro exhibited with Global Art Source at its debut exhibition in 2001. One more reason to meet this charismatic artist and to find out more about his work and what has been happening in his artistic life during the past two decades.

Don Porcaro says about himself: “My work over time has consistently explored the nature of human interaction with the physical world through references to architecture and man-made objects. I am not a stone carver in the traditional sense. I am more aligned with an artist like Bernini who as a builder and architect, constructed with stone.” (For full bio and info on the sculptures that will be exhibited at RagARTz 2021, click here)
