Described as fostering “a sense of lobotomized capitalist productivity,” artist Genesis Belanger coaxes tension from the mundane. Her stoneware sculptures are at once disconcerting and commonplace, depicting the uncanny remnants of a dinner party, medical furniture draped with lanky, limp limbs, and a discount shop hawking carved oranges, a half-eaten cookie, and apples chewed to their cores. More elaborate than her previous works, Belanger’s newest tableaus are similarly dramatic in subject matter while soft and subtle in visual tone—rather than glazing the ceramic sculptures, she blends powdered pigments into the material itself with a kitchen mixer, a practice that allows her to achieve her signature muted effect.

Kim Fonder ALBERO COLLAGE I Mixed Media on Paper with Plexiglass 20.00 X 20.00 in $1,100.00 Kim Fonder loves texture and touch. Her paintings and furniture reflect her infatuation with these two characteristics. From the materials Fonder selects, to the way she crafts each piece; these two attributes remain her focus. She seeks to honor Leonardo Da Vinci’s words, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Flora Narcissus - Yellow Burst, Atticus Adams Metal Mesh & Mirror Wall Sculpture Metal fiber sculpture that incorporates a mirror, fascinating light and shadow into its form. NOTE: This piece can be combined with the OTHER Flora Narcissus pieces to form an installation or grouping. Please contact the gallery to discuss discount for multiple pieces. From Atticus Adams: “I like to think of my work as Neo-Appalachian Folk Art.” Atticus grew up in the mountains of West Virginia, steeped in traditional folk art. Several members of his family were self-taught artists, deeply involved in such crafts as wood carving and quilting. “Making tangible objects is definitely part of my family heritage,” – “I come from a tradition of using simple, easily available materials for creative expression.” “Metal mesh is a beautiful, flexible material that allows you to explore shadow, transparency, and massing in endless ways. The material lends itself to these biomorphic shapes, which aren’t necessarily intentional . . . The sculptures seem fragile but are actually quite resilient—like nature itself.” His formal art training includes stints at Yale, Rhode Island School of Design, and Harvard’s School of Architecture. Atticus has fond summer memories of screened in porches back home and screen doors that practically dissolved the barrier between inside and outside, allowing the warmth and nature to permeate each day. This association continues to resonate in his art, and probably in those who get pleasure from his work. In 2006 Adams moved to Pittsburgh and now shares a loft with his husband Garry Pyles and his parrot Congo. This artwork is light and easy to ship and to install -- using 2 or three nails, or fishing line to achieve a desired position.

Yoakim Bélanger's art focuses on the human form. He is fascinated by movements, expressions, plasticity and their universality. Across various media (painting, drawing, photography and video) Yoakim Bélanger sublimates the physical appearance of humanity and celebrates its strength, passion and grace. In his paintings, through a work of removal, sanding and alterations on metal plates, Yoakim Bélanger reaches a vibrant and textured brushwork that merges the abstract and the figurative, order and chaos, shade and light. With this work, the artist achieves his ultimate goal of portraying both body and soul. Yoakim Bélanger works with oxidized steel and aluminum, raw materials that have not yet been affected by human contact but that hold the traces of passing time. These traces consist of varying textures and patterns, which to any other individual would appear arbitrary and meaningless. But, to the artist, these traces hold the primitive blueprint of his work. With his brush, he begins to bring forth an image so entwined with the medium on which it is painted that one could not exist without the other. The result is a juxtaposition of the intangible human spirit with the solidity of the metal. Born in 1977, Yoakim Bélanger is a multimedia artist who lives and works in Montreal. His work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Canada. In 2016, he exhibited in London to a great critical and popular success. He has also participated in several international fairs worldwide, including Miami, New York, Hamburg and Toronto. His artwork can be found in many private and public collections throughout Europe, the United States and Canada. He also holds a degree in graphic design and has directed two short films (If I can Fly and Ces femmes qui marchent) that have been acclaimed by critics in international film festivals. He is represented by galleries in Canada and in the UK.

About This contemporary solid bronze sculpture of a ram's head is inspired by the art of Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece with a reference to neoclassicism. The artist is able to attribute incredible details to this work of art featuring an aries with a majestic appearance due to its large horns. The animal figurative artwork is sculpted on the round and is inspired from the imagination of the artist and from archaic reminiscences. The artist has modeled the inert wax cast of the sculpture - which is the soul of the final result in bronze - creating an animal with very real facial expression and incredible realistic features with intricate detailed head. The artist is confident with his manuality and with the techniques of working with wax, clay and metal, as well as welding, soldering and shaping rigid materials, the basic skills necessary to work with bronze. His very personal technique is to manually apply each individual little piece of wax until the desired effect is achieved. The final results is a bronze sculptures that is smooth and rough at the same time. This sculpture is casted in Italy using very traditional techniques and the artist personally takes care of this process also. The noble bronze has now a green patina to simulate the natural oxidation process of metals but it's possible to polish the bronze in order to have a more brilliant golden finish as showed in the last two pictures. Each piece is unique as at each casting the artist re-models the wax cast based on the sample created in plaster. The plaster model of this aries' head is also available for sale in a lacquer matte finish or with gold or silver leaves finish. This sculpture is the perfect addition to any room, a contemporary yet classic fine artwork to be shown on a column, a table or a desk. A wunderkammer object for art lovers! This piece is immediately available, production leads time for additional pieces is 30 days circa. Measures: Depth 38 cm, Depth 35 cm, Height 22 cm Short artist’s biographical note Pablo Simunovic was born in Buenos Aires (Argentina) in 1974. He began to draw very young, at the age-child, self-taught. At the age of fourteen he began to attend the Institute of Design "Ricardo Rojas” in Buenos Aires, until the age of eighteen. He moved in 1999 to the United States, in Miami, and here is the crucial meeting for its formation, with the painter Abdon Romero, a Venezuelan painter, director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Maracaibo. In the atelier of Romero, directed together with the painter Sonia Hidalgo, Pablo Simunovic continues his artistic journey, practicing with the practice of drawing, and gains a clear and sure sign in the realization of the shapes and volumes. The artist is confident with his manuality and with the techniques of working with wax, clay and metal, as well as welding, soldering and shaping rigid materials, the basic skills necessary to work with bronze. The final results is a bronze sculptures that is smooth and rough at the same time that interprets the real movements and attitudes of the animal in an incredible way. Each piece is unique as at each casting the artist re-models the wax cast based on the sample created in plaster. The customer can choose a parcel gilt, burnished or green patina finish to the bronze. Currently Pablo lives and works between Florence and Pietrasanta, from painting he approached sculpture by working different materials from marble to bronze, his passion for sculpture often leads him to Pietrasanta in Tuscany, a privileged place for sculptors where he finds inspiration, materials and foundries to create his works of art.
