Steven Lowy’s work in 'solar sculpture' is an outgrowth of his longstanding interest in alternative energy and is also in keeping with his lineage — his family owned and operated an electrical contracting firm for nearly 100 years (Lowy & Donnath Electrical Construction, Inc., founded by Lowy’s grandfather in 1919 and still in operation today, holds license #1 for electrical construction in New York City). The son of an electrical engineer and interior designer, Lowy became intrigued by the notion of applying aesthetics to solar installations to create solar structures that would be pleasing to the eye with the potential to generate usable energy.

 

Each work is unique.
