Art in Motion …

The work of Albert August Schultz II displayed at ARTU4iA, 725 Ward St., Suite C, in downtown Martinez last Saturday. Schultz’s eclectic work was showcased as part of the monthly Martinez Art Beat event, and featured many unusual items like the motorbike pictured above. Several of the items used in Shultz’s work had been struck by lightning, inspiring the tinker to utilize them to make batteries. The artist also experimented with hydrogen and radon-driven apparatuses, which eventually led to the artist’s death.
