LITTLE FALLS — Edwin Falk has been creating art for more than 40 years. You can see his work on display at the Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts, beginning Thursday, June 16.

Falk is a self-described “dabbler in everything” which is plainly evident if you’ve ever visited his homestead where you will find various works adorning his acreage – from whimsical and functional yard art to octagonal structures of recycled materials to energy power systems that operate shop and home to organic gardens and orchards.

Discarded scrap steel appeals to him in a creative way. Once seen, a piece may take a year, perhaps waiting for that certain item to come along to finish the personality of the sculpture. He professes the 3 R’s – recycled, renewable and rusty.

Falk has participated in many art exhibits in the North Country over the past 30 years and has received several prizes and awards for his works.

Falk’s opening at the Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts coincides with the Art Walk in Little Falls. He will be at the gallery at 5:30 p.m. for the Artist’s Talk.

Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts is open from noon to 4 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 403 Canal Place, Little Falls. For information or to make an appointment, call 315-823-0808.
