Gasoline Alley and Other Sunday Dreams by Clint Neufeld

Saskatoon-area artist Clint Neufeld has a grease monkey’s appreciation for muscle cars, but he also replicates the components of engines, transmissions and axles in ceramic. His delicate sculptures ask viewers to consider men’s garage “tinkering” in terms of aesthetics, transformation — even love. Neufeld, a rising star on the Canadian art scene, had solo exhibitions in public art galleries across the country in 2011. Organized by Associate Curator Jen Budney, this is Neufeld’s first solo exhibition at the Mendel.
