  1. When I was a kid I attended the High School or Art and Design in NYC during the 60’s. Albino Cavalitto was my sculpture teacher then. Today he just popped into my mind and I Googled him and found this site and this work, “Worker” Reliefs, done by him as part of the New Deal project in 1941. Thank you for being here and preserving his work.
