About the Item

Jim Lewk Fishermen's Lighthouse House Coral Rock and Copper Nautical Sculpture Folk Art. Reminiscent of seaside lifestyle, this Jim Lewk copper sculpture features house resting on a coral rocky cliff. The House has a stairwell leading down to the dock. On the dock, there is a small shack as well as a sailboat and small skiff. from the house there is a darken path that leads to a lighthouse and flagpole. The artist said the path represents a path from his childhood that lead to a hideaway. I was concerned that something was missing where the path is. So I took it to the artist who told me the story and that it was meant to be that way. While there I had him clean it and bring it back to its original glory. The piece is signed by Jim Lewk and dated 1970. Biography Born in Troyes, France and raised in New York, his interest in art dates from pre-grammar school. After moving to Miami, he studied art at the University of Miami, Florida State University, and in several European countries. By 1970, he was working full-time as a metal sculptor. Even though he is familiar with current trends and techniques in art, he prefers to be an outsider artist, and has developed a style that is very much his own. ? Publications that have featured his work include: Holiday Magazine, Interior Design, Directions, Southern Living and others, including numerous newspapers. ? He has received over 300 awards from juried art shows and has exhibited his work in over 100 galleries and museums including: Museum of Science Fine Art Show. Miami Art Museum. Lowe Museum. Supreme court house. Sculptures of Florida, and others.
