About the Item
This stunning modern abstract sculpture is made from steel and its form was inspired by nature.
The contemporary sculptural work of Quebec artist Claude Millette has been lauded internationally for its bold original vision. Known best for working in steel, this piece is one of a series influenced by the natural world. Five elegantly curved petal-like shapes forged from mild steel in different sizes are grouped in a dynamic composition. The patina is a warm golden brown, an appropriate palette for an object that has organic origins. A large version of this sculpture can be found in a Montreal neighbourhood park. L’envol means ‘flight’ in French.
“Though staunchly non-figurative, my productions are not strictly abstractions per se: from the moment the gesture expresses an emotion or a reflection, the work is imbued with feeling.” Claude Millette
Claude Millette was born in Saint-Hyacinthe Quebec. He studied at the École de sculpture de Saint-Jean-Port-Joli and apprenticed with revered sculptors Robert Poulin and Jordi Bonet. Millette's works have been commissioned for many public art projects and have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Canada, the U.S., Europe and Mexico. Millette was one of 14 artists recently invited to create work in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the historic Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours in Montreal, Quebec.

"Untitled" Sidney Gordin, Abstract Metal Steel Sculpture

Located in New York, NY
Sidney Gordin
Untitled, 1958
Incised with initials
Welded Steel
15 x 10 1/2 x 6 inches
Provenance:
Eric Firestone Gallery, New York
On October 24, 1918, Sidney Gordin was born in Chelyabinsk, Russia. He spent his early years in Shanghai, China. At the age of four, he moved with his family to New York. Gordin’s nephew, Eliot Nemzer recalls that when Gordin was a child he attended “a dinner party with his parents. Someone showed him a book of pictures that when thumbed through quickly made the image appear to move. This person then gave him a wad of blank papers and something to write with. Sid created a similar type of moving image with his materials. All the adults at the party became quite excited [and] praised his efforts.

There, he studied under Morris Kantor (1896-1974) and Leo Katz...
