Art Glass Black Bench, Stained Glass and Cast Iron Sculpture by Drew Smith
Located in Long Island City, NY
As a native of Idaho Falls, Drew was inspired since early childhood by the beauty of the surrounding Intermountain Region. The Tetons, Snake River, and a few local wetlands became magical destinations with sounds of wind in the reeds or migrating waterfowl that continue to echo through Drew’s professional work. This cast iron bench has custom stained glass melted into the negative spaces, forming pseudo cushions to rest on. The back of the structure is molded to resemble a playful family of robots, holding each other and posed in a line as if taking a family photo.

Decorating with Abstract Sculpture
If you’re thinking about decorating your space with abstract sculpture, there are a couple of things to keep in mind.
You don’t have to look for a piece that demands attention. Find a work of abstract sculpture that speaks to you. As is the case with any abstract art, whether it’s sculpture, an abstract painting or a grouping of prints, you can select a work for your living room or dining room, for example, that will either casually fade into the background or serve as a focal point. When you’re thinking about how to arrange your furniture and decor, consider color, texture and what kind of energy you’d like a specific room or corner to evoke. Abstract sculpture can go a long way in elevating a home, and its history is interesting if you’re shopping for a new piece today.
As a pioneer in naturalistic forms and figures that vividly express emotion, Auguste Rodin is often called the father of modern sculpture. His work in the 19th and early 20th century broke with artistic conventions and inspired modernism, leading to a new period of avant-garde abstraction.
Among the first artists to push abstract sculpture into the mainstream were Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. They helped define the movement of Cubism, which focused on deconstructing the world abstractly.
Later in the 20th century, the artistic movements of Italian Futurism, Dadaism, Neo-Dadaism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism and minimalism all contributed to the advancement of new and more abstract sculpture designs. Italian Futurism, for example, celebrated movement, dynamics and technology in abstract sculpture. These movements passed down ideas that continue to inform abstract sculpture today.
