About the Item

ennifer Trask creates intricate sculptures using bone, metal, resin, and antique fragments, drawing inspiration from biology, archaeology, and art history. Her work explores the tension between life and death, nature and artifice, transforming materials like antlers, vertebrae, and teeth into delicate, organic compositions that evoke cycles of decay and renewal. Trask allows her materials to guide her process, respecting their physical and symbolic histories while refining surfaces with a painterly touch. Her fascination with preservation and display began during her studies at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design, where she explored metalsmithing alongside anthropology and frequently visited museum collections. Deeply influenced by vanitas paintings and their botanical illusions—where impossible floral arrangements symbolize beauty and mortality—Trask examines humanity’s impulse to curate nature. Her sculptures blur the boundaries between the natural and the artificial, challenging perceptions of permanence, transformation, and abundance.

White Tulips and Vase, April 4 - Contemporary, 21st Century, Sculpture

White Tulips and Vase, April 4 - Contemporary, 21st Century, Sculpture

By Donald Sultan

Located in Zug, CH

Donald Sultan, White Tulips and Vase, April 4, 2014 Contemporary, 21st Century, Limited Edition Painted aluminum on polished aluminum base Edition of 25 61 x 50,8 x 8,9 cm (24 x 20 x 3.5 in.) Incised with the artists initials, titled and dated; accompanied by Certificate of Authenticity In mint condition, as acquired from the publisher in the original packaging PLEASE NOTE: Edition numbers could vary from the one shown in the images. White Tulips and Vase, April 4, 2014, belong to Sultan’s famous Flower series. The artist is credited for the revival of the still life tradition where the image is deconstructed to the basic elements, thus Sultan’s work remains both abstract and representational. One of the mainstays of making art is that you don't think of the new ideas, you discover them. "One of the mainstays of the making art is that you don't think of the new ideas, you discover them." — Donald Sultan White Tulips and Vase, April 4, 2014, represents Sultan's still-life, where the shape of the object is reduced to the bare essentials. The image reveals one of the key features of Sultan’s work - the material juxtaposition- the contrast of a weighty background with ethereal shapes of the flowers. The sculpture is made from painted aluminum on a polished aluminum base. The ephemeral shape of the flowers is gracefully combined with the weighty aluminum manifesting the synthesis of the natural and the industrial typical to Sultan´s work. The sculpture is incised with title, date, and artist initials, it is as well stamped with the edition number, publisher, and artist copyright stamp on the base verso.

He is best known for the use of abstracted, geometric black forms against organic areas of bright color.

He has a unique artistic method and innovative approach to traditional subject matter. Known as Abstract Representation, Donald Sultan´s art is characterized by the use of geometric black forms set against organic areas of bright color, thus bringing an abstract sensibility to his iconographic images of still life. Throughout his career he has revisited and reinvented still life, using images of lemons, poppies, playing cards, fruits, flowers, and other objects. Donald Sultan’s Lemons...
