Factory by Don Harvey Industrial Iron Art Sculpture Steampunk Expressionism

About the Item

"Factory by Don Harvey measure: 74" Don Harvey is an American Postwar & Contemporary artist who was born in 1941 Don Harvey’s artwork explores the tensions between opposites: sculpture and painting, rural and urban, human and animal, the untouched environment and man’s intervention, the divisions between nations. Harvey grew up in rural Iowa and makes his home these days in urban Cleveland; his father was a successful inventor with a machine shop—facts which may or may not offer some light on the artis’s frequent tendency, in his early work, to juxtapose the agricultural and industrialized worlds. Employing elements of collage, Harvey has used things like real industrial fluids to represent lake water and manipulated digital photographs on metal to represent the industrial and natural environment.".

  • Josep Maria Subirachs Industrial Modernist Abstract Cast Iron Sculpture
    By Josep Maria Subira­chs Sit­ja
    Located in Dayton, OH
    An Impressive Cast Iron floor sculpture by Josep Maria Subirachs, circa 1960s. Reminiscent in form to an arrowhead or primitive blade. Josep incorporated grattage leaving the surface rough and jagged. Signed along the lower edge. From the private collection of Vincent and Elana Bolling. The Bollings were philanthropists and advocates for the performing and visual arts. JOSEP MARIA SUBIRACHS SITJAR was born on March 11, 1927 in Barcelona. From the age of nine to the age of twelve he experienced the tragic events of the Spanish Civil War, the overthrow of the Republican government in 1939 and the beginning of the Franco regime. Born into a working class family in the Barcelona district of Poblenou, the precarious economic situation suffered during the post-war period forced him to renounce studying architecture and he began working at the workshop of a gilder and amateur sculptor when he was just fourteen years old. By then, he was already modeling clay figures which he used to bring to the furnace at a local roof tile factory. From 1942 to 1947 he worked as an apprentice under the sculptor Enric Monjo at his workshop, acquiring technical skills. But the person who taught him most profoundly was Enric Casanovas, with whom he worked for a brief period because, unfortunately, the 'Noucentista' died in January 1948, just a fews months after Subirachs entered his workshop as a collaborator.The influence of Casanovas is apparent in the young sculptor...
