About the Artist

albert_dicruttalo_in_studioBorn in upstate New York in 1967, I grew up in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains in the post-industrial town of Gloversville.  After studying art at Ithaca College, I continued making sculpture and traveled for extended periods in Alaska and South America. In 1994 I began working as a research assistant in the Program of Computer Graphics at Cornell University to investigate and utilize electronic technologies in the creation of sculpture. Two years later I moved to Oakland, California to work as an assistant for well-known sculptor, Bruce Beasley.  I established a studio and foundry and have been living and working in Oakland since that time.

In 2008 and 2009 I was invited to participate in “e-Form”, an extensive survey of Digital Sculpture featuring over thirty international artists. “e-Form” survey is an evolution of the First International Rapid Prototype Sculpture Exhibition as well as the biannual international digital sculpture events of InterSculpt during the past sixteen years. The show opened in October 2008 in Beijing at Today Art Museum, travelled to Duolun Museum of Modern Art in Shanghai and continued on to Jinse Gallery in Chonqing in early 2009.

Currently I show at many San Francisco Bay Area galleries including the Varnish Fine Art in San Francisco, Winfield Gallery in Carmel, Auberge du Soleil in Napa, and Paradise Ridge in Santa Rosa.
