Frank Gallo – An American Artist has been exhibited in museums throughout the U.S. Working originally in polyester resin with fiberglass, he later chose cast paper due to health concerns. He is known for his studies of the female form. This house carries several of his works. Pick the one you love the best and make it your own!
Frederick Hart – a renowned American sculptor left this life early at the young age of 55. One of his most famous bronzes is the Three Soldiers (Servicemen) which graces the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington DC. We are thrilled to have an acrylic piece entitled “Gerontion” beautifully displayed on a lighted pedestal base.
Michael Wilkinson – Another stunning acrylic piece is “Temple Fragment”. Michael Wilkinson is an incredible American sculptor who works in acrylic. A direct quote explains it all, “In an age where the purpose of much ‘art’ is to shock and offend, art of beauty and meaning is a bright spot; it is balm for our eyes and our souls. I believe art should uplift the human spirit. That is why I see the ideal in my art; the ideal illuminates our potentialities. It is an affirmation of the best within us.”
This is just a small sample of the great artists you will encounter at our sale! Come be amazed!
