About the Item
La scultura, a forma di un ideale e perfetto alveare, sottolinea anche il desiderio dell'artista di mettere l'accento sull'influenza che le api hanno rispetto ai cambiamenti legati al movimento della terra nell'universo.
Per evidenziarlo ha preso in esame le misure del perielio e afelio, che rispettivamente indicano la minima e massima distanza fra la terra e il sole. E ha riportato le stesse proporzioni alla scultura, che conferiscono la forma ovale.
La forma ovale ricorda anche l'uovo, simbolo di vita e nascita.
La scultura è realizzata in ceramica con una patina color miele difficile da riprodurre, l'artista si avvale della consulenza e dei forni della più quotata fornace artistica italiana per realizzarla: Gatti di Faenza.
La scultura è completata da sei api in bronzo rimovibili a piacimento. Un'opera elegante, facile da collocare - su una libreria, un camino, come centro tavola - e ricca di significati naturalistici e scientifici. Nel contempo asseconda quell'originalità richiesta dall'arte contemporanea.
L’eclettica e longeva carriera di Jessica Carroll, artista italiana di padre americano, si esprime soprattutto attraverso la scultura.
La scultrice, piemontese d'adozione, padroneggia molti materiali. Sa dare corpo alle storie naturali più affascinanti e curiose. Fin da bambina ha esplorato con il padre i grandi parchi degli Stati Uniti. Dove Jessica ha imparato a osservare e assimilare la natura e chi la abita, con tutti i sensi all'erta.
Lettrice curiosa, sviluppa con installazioni spettacolari alcuni degli eventi naturali ancora intrisi di mistero, come lo spostamento di mandrie, greggi, pesci e sciami in tutto il mondo per riprodursi, nutrirsi e morire. Utilizza un linguaggio d'avanguardia, guidato da un'innata eleganza con cui sa raccontare storie originali.
Le sue installazioni coniugano la visione dell'artista contemporaneo, che sa trarre vantaggio da materiali moderni e non convenzionali, con uno sguardo altrettanto nuovo; allo stesso tempo, sono il risultato di lunghe osservazioni in natura e di ricerche approfondite, che generano conoscenze che permettono di sintetizzare concetti complessi, movimenti di masse immense, episodi che altrimenti sarebbero rappresentati in spazi circoscritti.
Per questo motivo, lo studio delle api e della loro indispensabile e articolata struttura è stato al centro della sua arte fin dagli esordi. Nel corso degli anni, ha allargato i suoi interessi a branchi di api che si spostano per centinaia di chilometri attraverso le praterie.
Le anguille viaggiano ogni anno intorno al Mar dei Sargassi per riprodursi, in alcuni casi facendo il giro del mondo, e gli stormi di api attraversano i nostri cieli in cerca di cibo, clima e nutrimento ideale, coprendo distanze inimmaginabili. Jessica Carroll ha il dono di dare forma ai grandi misteri della natura.

Naturalistic Woman Holding a Calf Sculpture
Located in Houston, TX
Naturalistic sculpture of a woman standing and holding a small calf. The sculpture is signed "Happy Birthday 1976" and "W. R. Stevenson" on one side of the base.
Artist Biography: William Robert Stevenson was born in 20 May 1925 in Eugene, Oregon. His family moved to Minneapolis, MN but he promptly returned to Oregon and Washington during the Great Depression to work in the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Hoping to study Art, his future was sidetracked when he was drafted into the United States Army at age 17 years old in early 1942. Being a strong swimmer, and having worked at stables as a child, he initially served in the last US Cavalry Corps, and also as a Swimming Instructor for the United States Army. Upon the abolition of the Cavalry Corps, he was trained as a Gunnar and Tank Commander for the M-4 Sherman Tank under General Patton...

Monkey Head Natural Sisal Fiber Clay Sculpture Chimpanzee Anne Andersson Art
Located in Surfside, FL
Anne Andersson
Sisal fiber wall sculpture
Monkey Head (# 1)
Hand signed to verso
Dated 2009.
Measures approx. 11" height x 10" width x 6 1/4" depth.
Her sculptures are made of natural sisal Fiber from an agave and meticulously hand painted. The eyes are hand blown glass.
Anne Andersson was born in Gothenburg, Sweden, with a great desire to explore Nature and a Passion for Art. She received a degree in science in 1981 from Kjällbergska University in Gothenburg and a degree in Art from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. She now works from her studio in St. Petersburg, Florida as a Sculptor, illustrator and painter. Her work calls to mind the animalia artworks of Henri Maik and Gustavo Novoa.
Anne Andersson's artwork serves as an homage to our planet’s charismatic and rare wild animals. Inspired by the majesty and beauty of exotic wildlife, and motivated by an urge to preserve them, Anne’s astonishingly realistic life-size sculptures capture the experience of seeing these animals up close without exploiting them. Her sculpted work using natural materials and clay, provides a humane alternative to big game trophy hunting and taxidermy.
She combines her talents in painting, tapestry weaving and illustration with an intuitive attention to the smallest detail to truly bring her sculptures to life. She has created lions, tigers, leopards, jaguars, cheetahs, bobcats, lynxes, pumas, panthers, elephants, rhinos, bears, water buffalo, bison, moose, wolves, coyotes and more—but she feels closest to the big cats. Anne graduated with honors at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale in 1989. It was then that she met Don Moore...
