About the Item

A wonderful fused and carved black glass figurative art glass sculpture mounted on an iron stand/base. The bottom of the stand reads Sam Pilchuck Studios S??????. We’re not really familiar with the Pilchuck studios other than a quick google search. The piece is wonderful. It is likely from the 1970s-80s I would guess. We do not believe it is an edition but rather a one off sculpture. The sculpture is in good overall condition although where the iron rod is inserted into the sculpture there is some roughness and minor glass flinging or chipping. It is pictured.

Fred Schumm Lifesize Whimsical Painted Wood Sculpture of a Nude

Fred Schumm Lifesize Whimsical Painted Wood Sculpture of a Nude

By Fred Schumm

Located in Palm Springs, CA

A great whimsical colorfully painted lifesize wood sculpture of a nude. The base has been re-painted black. It is signed on the leg Schumm, 1995. The artist's statement from a 2007 article follows; Fred Schumm does not view life through rose-colored glasses. He doesn't have to. Schumm, Rowan University's artist-in-residence, is a former U.S. Marine who lived through some of the most horrific battles of World War II. He served at Peleliu -- two months of carnage on a tiny Pacific atoll where 12,000 perished - and then four long months on the bloodied isle of Okinawa. Since then, Schumm, 82, has mostly tried to see life's beauty. It's sort of like how sunlight, warm but ordinary to the naked eye, is refracted into myriad, impossibly beautiful combinations of color when viewed through a kaleidoscope. And, like sunlight, he finds art everywhere. "Inspiration is all around but mostly I'm inspired by the ancients," Schumm said recently. "I love Prehistoric African carvings, the works of ancient Greeks, Japanese and Chinese. I especially love Eskimo work." The celebrated sculptor loves Eskimo work so much he once hitchhiked from his home state of Colorado to Alaska just to see native carvings. "I wanted to see the TOTEM poles," he said. "The Alaskan Indians were fantastic artists." Schumm, artist-in-residence since 2003, works with various hardwoods, stone, even metals. A studio in which he works at Westby Hall has pieces in various stages of completion, from an eight-foot-tall, stainless steel sculpture he calls "Aviary" to a solid, six-foot log of black locust...

1999 Bronze Abstract Sculpture by Noted Mexican Artist Jonas Gutierrez Castillo

1999 Bronze Abstract Sculpture by Noted Mexican Artist Jonas Gutierrez Castillo

Located in Palm Springs, CA

A wonderful bronze abstract in the form of a female nude mounted on a terrazzo base. It is by the noted Mexican artist Jonas Gutierrez Castillo. It is signed Jonas 99 PA near the base. PA stands for Pruebas de Artista or Artist's Proof. The bronze has a beautiful warm brown gold patina. The base is a heavy terrazzo with lots of inclusions. The base has some losses to the edges which are pictured in detail. The bronze has some patina inclusions or spots, pictured as well. One of the artist's more notable works is a massive bronze title the The Stone Eater on Puerto Vallarta's Malecon. We've attached a biography of the artist courtesy of Galleria Dante of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico below: Born in Guadalajara, Jalisco in 1966. The artist began to sculpt at an early age. In 1980, he helped create the monumental public sculpture "La Estampida", which is located at a busy intersection in his hometown, near the emblematic building of the Hotel Riu. Jonás Gutiérrez is known in Puerto Vallarta for his monumental 2.4-meter-high bronze and obsidian sculpture...
