Paul Braslow
The Girl-White, Bronze

GFA948

About the Item

"The Girl-White'' is an edition bronze sculpture by Paul Braslow. This sculpture is hand-signed. He was an American sculptor and artist that established himself in the medium of figurative bronze sculpture with permanent collections in museums around the world. His sculptures show life as it should be — graceful, elegant, and hopeful. Each sculpture is cast in bronze from a wax mold and then sealed with an enamel finish. Some are left with their natural bronze coloring while others are coated with vibrant, rich colors. His sculptures inevitably recall works by Brancusi in their startling grace, as well as the intensity of works by Giancometti. After the first impressions, one reads the sculptures for their strength of balance, and only then the sense of emotion becomes apparent and remains the lasting impression. In his series "Gaea", Braslow depicts the various stages of a woman's life by capturing the gesture and form of an adolescent girl to a mature lady. In other pieces, he captures the elegance and seduction of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Paul Braslow went to U.C.L.A. and got a degree in Arts. In the late 1970s, he went to Israel to execute the Entebbe Rescue Memorial at Ben-Gurion Airport and sculptures for Yad Vashem Memorial Holocaust Museum and Haifa Museum of Modern Art. The planned six months in Israel stretched into four intense years. Braslow sculptures are in permanent collections of numerous museums and public, private, and corporate collections throughout the world.

The approach at rendering the figure is grotesque, and the facial features have been severely distorted to the point were the portrait becomes an abstract interpretation of the subject. As an artist and writer, Philip Pavia was a committed member of the Abstract Art community throughout his long, distinguished career.

    As an artist and writer, Philip Pavia was a committed member of the Abstract Art community throughout his long, distinguished career. Pavia was active in the art world until his death in 2005 and received immense critical praise for his artistic and literary contributions. Recognized for his signature work The Ides of March, he produced monumental pieces that alternated between figurative and abstract styles. While he was a dedicated sculptor, Pavia extended that passion into writing and published It is: A Magazine for Abstract Art. Born in 1911 of Provencal-Italian descent, the Stratford, Connecticut native received early inspiration from his father, a professional stone cutter. Pavia's sculptures are characterized by rough, chiseled bronze and marble, his father's trade was no doubt a significant influence. In fact, by 1934, his father was so enthusiastic about his son's passion that he encouraged young Philip to study at the Academia delle Belle Arti in Florence, Italy. Before his studies in Europe, Pavia was briefly a student at Yale University but quickly dropped out and enrolled at New York's Art Student League. While attending school, he befriended artists Jackson Pollock and Arshile Gorky. All three were to become major players of the vibrant new Abstract Art movement. At his father's advice, Pavia embarked on his European experience and was introduced to other influential artists of his time. Traveling between Italy and Paris, Pavia met John Ferren...
