Mark Kostabi
The Edge of Forever

2023

About the Item

The Edge of Forever is a sculpture in bronze, signed and dated ‘KOSTABI 2023,’ and numbered 3/8 from the edition of nine on one of the angel’s wings (there was also 1 AP). Mark Kostabi is widely known for his paintings, but the artist has also worked in bronze since the 1980s. Two of his sculptures are permanently installed in Italy – one in the central square of San Benedetto del Tronto, and the second in Largo Villa Glori in Terni. Kostabi’s sculptural work continues the theme of the faceless “Everyman/woman,” conveying universal situations through iconic gestures and postures. Each is also beautifully designed by Kostabi to be an elegant and mysterious object - one which commands attention wherever it is placed.

  • Broadway's in Fashion
    By Erté
    Located in Greenwich, CT
    Erté, considered by many as the “Father of Art Deco,” often acknowledged that his love for the theater was a great source of creativity and inspiration. He conveyed in his art a drama with which he lived his life – a dream that came from the very innermost expression of his soul. Just like theater has two faces - comedy and tragedy - Erté was a brilliant showman, as well as a quiet man who sometimes would prefer to be left alone. From a young age, he was immersed in the world of opera, ballet, and theater. When he designed costumes and sets for theatrical productions, it was a lifelong desire that he was fulfilling. “Broadway’s in Fashion” is a fitting tribute to the legendary Broadway from a man who pursued the theatrical in everything he did. In 1978, Erté was honored by the Eugene O’Neill Foundation at a gala celebration in New York entitled “Broadway’s in Fashion” for which Erté designed the poster. This led to a CBS-TV film on Erté narrated by the legendary Diana Vreeland, and an exhibition of his costume designs at the Boston Center of the Arts. This sculpture, in scarlet and black, with white gold embellishments, incorporates the elements for which Broadway is best known. Her elegant and confident posture reveals her costume, which is itself an homage to Broadway – the scarlet robe with gold tassels evokes the stage curtain as it rises to reveal the first act, the male and female dancers, energetically giving their all for each performance, and the Greek masks of comedy and tragedy...
