RIVERDALE ART ASSOCIATION May 2012

Artist Presentation: Felipe Galindo Designer of Stained Glass for the 231st Street Subway Station

 "I will talk about my work as a visual artist who works with humor in a variety of media, from cartoons and illustrations in publications like The New Yorker and other periodicals, to public art. In particular I will describe the process of the design and creation of 4 faceted glass panels that are in a permanent installation at the subway platforms at the 231st Station of the #1 line. In the meantime I invite you to visit my website where you can see some samples of my work at: www.felipegalindo.com"
