origami

 Explore the link between origami and other forms of art and architecture with the Water Street Studios' art lecture "Geometric Creations in Art, Architecture and Origami."

The lecture, a first in a series, will be from 6 to 8 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 24 in Batavia. It will be presented by Lane Allen.

From cubist paintings to the architecture of Frank Gehry, this lecture will explore both traditional origami and Lane's unique "Origane" (metal folding) in contrast to many interesting aspects of art and architecture around the world. Lane will start the evening with a demonstration of his Origane work.

Admission is free to Water Street Studio artist members and $5 for other members and the general public.
