Michael Kalish Artwork, Sherwood Gallery, Laguna Beach, CA
Kalish owes his art career to a South Dakota license plate and a fascination with the fundamental principles of America. After spending most of his life on the baseball field, Kalish was uncertain about what life after college had in store. “I was driving around one day and saw this car with a South Dakota tag. It was unlike anything I’d ever seen and I found myself obsessed with the thought of collecting license plates from all over the country and turning them into art.” Allowing his creativity to take over, Kalish began collecting tags and experimenting with ways to fuse them together to form a sculptural flag of the United States, his first piece.
Michael is an amazing artist. I love his work and his passion for it. Can’t wait to own one of them for myself!!
