Mark Beattie Art

British, b. 1988
Mark Beattie MRSS is a British award-winning sculptor who has had a remarkable career so far winning the Midlands Open and the Xerxes Sculpture Prize in 2015. In the same year he was elected to the Royal Society of Sculptors (MRSS). In 2017 Mark was shortlisted for the Open Contemporary Young Artist Award run by The Biscuit Factory gallery in Newcastle, shortlisted for the international Rise Art Prize and long-listed for The Secret Art Prize by Curious Duke Gallery in London. Mark creates abstract sculptures using various metals and ranging in size from miniature to monumental. Each sculpture is unique and finished in a way that is sensitive to the material. He has developed a signature style through which his sculptures contain movement and fluidity. Mark has recently started using neon which works in harmony with his metalwork and has added a sense of energy to his practice. From an early point in his career Mark has been fascinated with circles; the harmony and unity they offer features in almost all of his sculptures. Mark explains “the circle for me is the perfect shape; I’ve always considered it an abstract symbol of happiness. I think we are drawn to circles; contoured lines are softer than straight and an easier form for the eye to settle on. In my work I strive for perfection, a balance between the physical material and the negative space.” As Mark works with metal, he is exploring the properties of the material. He is often contrasting finishes; morphing from the pure/unblemished to the rusted/antiqued appearance or the bright fluorescent against the matte black. He has recently started to break out of the spherical to create spirals and towers that still pursue the poetry of free-flowing curves and maintain the harmonious balance of form and space. In 2015 Mark introduced light to his work. He stresses: “it’s not a departure or a change in direction, but a material that adds energy and movement to my sculptures. There’s an energy in neon light and not just the current running through the glass, but I see a positive energy which I hope will transfer to the viewer and create some tranquillity even if just for a second. A moment of reflection, meditation almost, away from our busy lives.” Mark enjoys the idea of colour theory and he probes the essence of what we deem light and colour to do and mean. He steps into making a sculpture, aware that colours can act as an emotional directive for the observer. Mark is comfortable leaving the viewer to draw their own conclusions, satisfied with the knowledge that his work transcends culture, religion and background. Mark has a strong academic background in art, having studied a BA Hons in Contemporary Art Practice at Leeds University and an MA in European Arts Practice at Kingston University, Surrey. To date he has exhibited in over 60 exhibitions, either in a group or as a solo artist and has a strong following of collectors worldwide.

Burnished Rose - Contemporary Original Tabletop Metal Sculpture
By Atticus Adams
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Atticus Adams' organically composed modern metal sculptures embody the transformative power of contemporary art, illustrating the creation of beauty, meaning, and emotional impact from industrial materials. Using mostly aluminum mesh—generally found in screen doors, windows, and filters—he creates contemporary abstract sculptural artworks and installations, which resemble flowers, clouds, and other natural phenomena. Working in metal, Adams effortlessly transforms rigid material into airy, effervescent artworks. This 15-inch high by 10-inch wide by 8-inch deep tabletop sculpture is created with copper mesh, gesso, acrylic paint, rivets, and wire on a metal stand. Size and price include stand. Atticus works spontaneously, feeling his way toward the objects that take shape in his mind as he shapes them almost entirely by hand. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Atticus grew up in West Virginia, steeped in traditional folk art. Several members of his family are self-taught artists, deeply involved in such crafts as wood carving and quilting. His formal art training includes stints at Yale, Rhode Island School of Design, and Harvard’s School of Architecture. Atticus has fond summer memories of screened-in porches back home and screen doors that practically dissolved the barrier between inside and outside, allowing the warmth and nature to permeate each day. This association continues to resonate in his art. “Metal mesh is a beautiful, flexible material that allows you to explore shadow and transparency in endless ways,” he says. “The material lends itself to these biomorphic shapes, which aren’t necessarily intentional . . . The sculptures seem fragile but are actually quite resilient—like nature itself.” A well-known sculptor, the organically inspired artworks of Atticus Adams are held in public and private collections and are exhibited in galleries and museums across the United States.
