Red Anteater Large Garden Sculpture signed, limited edition #4/10, 84" tall Joseph Meerbott has been constructing bronze, metal sculptures, and ceramics for over 30 years. Schooled at Florida Atlantic University, with a BA in Fine Arts, his education covers a broad spectrum of artistic mediums. Influenced by the works of Picasso to Matisse, Meerbott sculptures embody the spirit of Pop Art. In his personal style, Meerbott transforms acclaimed two-dimensional post-modern works into dynamic three-dimensional sculptures. The results are instantly familiar yet firmly unique pieces of modern art. Joseph Meerbott utilizes welded aluminum as well as bronze for the creation of his sculptures. Meerbott uses urethane-based enamels to allow for his works to be exhibited in all locations, both indoor and outdoor. The sculptures themselves range in size, from the intimate to the grandiose, and can be built to site-specific requirements. 2000 - 2012 Featured Artist - Elaine Baker Gallery Boca Raton, Florida 2000 - 2012 Featured Artist - Collectors Corner...

Music Sonata In A Shadow Box 2023 Mixed Media, artist signed, front Plexiglas. This sculpture is perfect for the wall or a coffee table. This 3D music diorama found its home in a drawer from an antique Tansu Chest. Some of the 3D elements were made by Erikson. Antique materials achieve a vintage and interesting aesthetic. The depth of the case creates a stage like atmosphere as sort of a visual guide for the viewers eye. The overlapping and juxtaposition of the elements creates a intriguing and appealing composition. Very often Erikson art echoes and fuses antiquity and modernity. Erikson’s central imagery concerns itself with intrigue and a sense of surprise. His body of work is often dispersed with visual, tactile and intellectual delights that lead the viewer on their own form of discovery. Erikson’s awareness of the aesthetic in sending things back in time is a result of studying the Renaissance and other periods of art history. This infusion of historical art references has had a vital effect on his body of work. Heavily influenced by the well known New York art dealer Allan Stone (who represented, among other giants, Joseph Cornell, and Willem de Kooning, Erikson has never departed from Stone’s insistence that “surprise” should remain with a piece of art no matter how long it is viewed. The discipline of archeology decodes messages of the past to find meanings of objects and classify them. This observation takes the viewer on a deeper understanding of the interplay. As a curator of his own “museum cases” in other work, Erikson’s personal vocabulary evokes images of extreme preciousness combined in miniature settings. Despite its minute scale his work commands presence and a sense of vastness. In his body of work, Erikson attempts to introduce sculpture to painting as a way of integrating the second and third dimensions.
