Ralph Dorazio Art

Ralph Dorazio was a modernist sculptor who drew inspiration from the New York City avant-garde scene in the 60s and 70s. He collaborated with modern dance pioneers and composers, designing sets, props, costumes, and instruments for their performances, which served as artworks in their own right. Dorazio was recognized mainly for his consummate craftsmanship and devotion to the organic nature of wood, producing many sculptures within the medium, embodying the music and movement of the time.

Abstract Modern Sculpture " Stronghold "Outdoor Recycled Wood Aluminium Silver
By David Marshall
Located in Benahavis, ES
The modern Sculpture " Stronghold ” is a unique metal piece made from a burnout mold by David Marshall in 2021, sand cast in aluminium and wood in our foundry, handcrafted by the Artist in his workshop is Spain. His signature certifies its authenticity. With more than 50 Years since his first exhibition in Spain, David Marshall has shown his highly individual work throughout Europe and United States. “ After all this years since my first show I am still fascinated by working in 3 dimensions – maybe because I cant draw or more likely because sculpture holds some obtuse subconscious obligation. It is still addictive and highly satisfying despite the onus of molding, casting, welding, polishing, fitting in a tough work environment before the final satisfaction of seeing the piece come together as envisaged. Living in the mountains provides the creative impetus, being surrounded by rocks, rivers, the detritus of erosion, geomorphology and all natures destructive force has inspired an eclectic, very personal and organic bias to my work – an appreciation of random forms, diverse textures and all the unexpected creativity of the natural world where no line is perfect.” Metal and Wood Sculpture, Abstract, Silver, Outdoor, Indoor, Modern, Contemporary, Recycled Wood
