Cannistraro. Entitled Past the Curtain to See the Bones, Leitner’s exhibition will explore the architecture and archive of the Plumbing Museum through his signature style of painting and sculpture. Leading up to his residency, Leitner’s work has explored the act of traveling thorough a confined space. “I got tired of looking outside of the box for new material, so I dug deeper within it” explains Leitner.
