Robert Mullins: Kinetic Sculpture
on view March 5 – April 19, 2013
 

DUBLIN, Ohio (Feb. 8, 2013) Robert Mullins: Kinetic Sculpture is an exhibition of aluminum and stainless steel sculptures that interact with their environment. The exhibition will feature some of the scale models used in realizing several large-scale commissioned artworks that have been installed in the greater Columbus region since 1992.

Mullins’ intent is to create graceful form through an elegant mechanical design. The studies of form and design combine to produce the compelling dynamics of movement.

Robert Mullins, a Columbus area resident, business owner and artist, received a Bachelor of Fine Art from Kent State University in 1977. He started a metal fabricating shop in 1988, specializing in custom metal signs. As more divergent types of work evolved, the business became known as The Wind Kinetics Institute, Inc.

Robert Mullins: Kinetic Sculpture, Mullins’ first gallery exhibition, will be on view in the Dublin Arts Council gallery, 7125 Riverside Dr., in Dublin from March 5 through April 19, 2013. The exhibition opens with a reception with the artist at Dublin Arts Council on March 5 from 6 to 8 p.m. The exhibition and opening reception are free of charge. Exhibition hours: Tuesday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Wednesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and Saturday 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
