Nino Franchina
Silver Composition - Silvered Bronze Sculpture by N. Franchina - 1960

1960

About the Item

Silver Composition is an original decorative object realized by Nino Franchina in 1960. Original sculpture realized in silvered bronze. Bronze patinated silver sculpture. Signed and dated on the base: "Nino Franchina 60". Pyramid wooden base. Excellent conditions. "The material that I love the most is iron [...] Iron bends very docilely; when it is incandescent it has an immense charm, it writhes, flickers, offers itself, dances". These are the words that the artist uses to describe his works. Beautiful abstract sculpture made of iron, silver and bronze coated. Sculpture is a typical example of Franchina's art that has succeeded in conveying abstraction with naturalism thanks to the use of materials such as wood, iron and metals in general.

"Curvature Box" unique bronze sculpture
By Gerard Tsutakawa
Located in Glen Ellen, CA
Gerard Tsutakawa's playful interpretation of a window frame, "Curvature Box," is finely hand-crafted in fabricated bronze, as opposed to cast, and is therefore one-of-a-kind and not an edition. Finished with the artist’s beautiful, rich dark patina with gold tinges. Gerard Tsutakawa’s designs are a confluence of the cultures and traditions of the Pacific Rim. Tsutakawa grew up with a rich heritage of Japanese design creativity and sensibility combined with a lifetime spent in the Pacific Northwest’s beautiful natural environment. Exposure to the esthetics of cultures around the Pacific Rim instilled a humanistic approach to his creative process. He gathers images as bold as a Tongan war club, or as sensitive as folded origami paper, and creates a subliminal integration as a new art form.   Tsutakawa apprenticed with his father, the late George Tsutakawa...
