About the Item
Insider series (G.B.R. Number 1.) is one of many works included in that series. "This series of works emphasizes smooth, almost pillowly, carved limestone forms supported or cradled by steel structures that seem threatening and yet provocative. The common denominator of the group is the steel clad channel that pierces each stone from top to bottom. These vertical chambers reveal a maze of bronze wires which, according to the artist, embody the vast network of privileged information that is so closely hidden from most citizens."

Mark Beltchenko Studio
Mark Beltchenko is a Detroit area sculptor that is highly skilled in multiple media. Equally comfortable working in stone, steel, bronze, wood and precious metals his work serves as a meditation on the good and bad in our current lives: the environment, political hypocrisy, positive growth, greed and human narcissism. Much of his work weaves layers upon another in stories through 3 dimensional pictographs. His imagery communicates in ways that are both primitive and profound; both sweeping and diminutive. Beltchenko is not a loud or verbose man but his work screams at us with dire urgency. That is not to say his work is obvious, rather, it is not. It requires effort. One must spend time with the work and breathe into it. You may not immediately recognize the discourse; however allow yourself to linger and as one lingers the layers begin to unfold and reveal its meticulous detail and dialogue. It affects and changes you. Mark has shown in museums and galleries; executed commissions for colleges, churches, corporations, casinos, and municipalities. In addition to producing his own bodies of work he has participated in visiting artist programs and workshops. Mark also creates one of a kind precious metal jewelry for which he has won numerous design awards.
