We are a bit late on this, but it’s too good to go to our photo graveyard.
Mark Alsweiler opened his solo show “Sundial” at China Heights a few weeks back and it was packed. The work was solid and the craftsmanship of the sculptures was a new step for Mark.
Apologies for the photos, as we said, it was packed out for the opening.
