Sold Out

Angela Meleca Gallery is excited to present "Sold Out", a solo exhibition by Tim Rietenbach, Columbus College of Art and Design Professor of Fine Arts.

The show highlights Rietenbach's most recent work which centers around local, national and global social and economic concerns. He utilizes established vocabularies as vehicles for abstraction, to give voice to the disenfranchised.

Reitenbach (b.1955) received his BFA in painting from Columbus College of Art & Design and a MFA in sculpture from The Ohio State University. He has received generous support from the Ohio Arts Council, the Greater Columbus Arts Council, the National Endowment for the Arts, The Crane Group and Capital Crossroads. Most notably, Rietenbach is responsible for a 100-foot human skeleton permanently installed in Columbus, Ohio at the Center of Science and Industry, entitled Giganti. Most recently, he created a small herd of cattle that could be seen afloat on the Columbus Scioto River, as part of a temporary collection of public-art pieces around Downtown Columbus to commemorate the city's bicentennial in 2012.

Rietenbach lives and works in Columbus Ohio.
