Mid Century Maquette for Sculpture --Gateways

1967

About the Item

A smaller maquette/model for a larger piece titled "Gateways" wood and aluminum sculpture by Doris Ann Warner (American, 1925-2010). Signed "Warner" on bottom. Estate of Doris Warner. Image, 15"H x 18.25"W x 8"D. Doris Warner first achieved recognition as an abstract expressionist painter, then rediscovered the world of stone carving through a journey to Pietrasanta, Italy, where she studied with art professor Pasquale Martini. Primarily known for stone carving with Bronze Applique as well as abstract female Stone figures, which emphasized body movement through rhythmic flow of mass and line. Warner studied Sculpting at the University of California Santa Cruz as well as Pietrasanta, Italy, with Professor Pasquale Martini in 1988. Statement by Doris Warner's daughter: She was born in Kansas on May 4, 1925. She did take some art classes in Sacramento when I was in high school. She went back to school after they moved to Santa Cruz and obtained her Bachelor’s degree in 1983 from UCSC. She spent a month in Pietra Santa, Italy studying how to work with marble and purchased about three tons of marble which was shipped to Santa Cruz. All her marble pieces are from the marble she purchased while in Italy. She also spent some time in Canada but can not tell you where or what, I just remember her going up there.

  • Abstract Wall Sculpture "Synopsis" - Early Hologram Effect
    By Halvorsen Vever, Elsbeth
    Located in Soquel, CA
    "Synopsis" by Elsbeth Halvorsen Vever (American, b. 1929). Box sculpture combines aluminum, sand, bone, glass and a magnifier. Signed "Elsbeth Vever 1982" on verso. Image, 24.50"L x 13.75"H x 4"W. Using bone as the central image Elsbeth has assembled an optical and visual experience. One view is the magnification and juxtaposition of the floating effect of the curvature in the stainless steel background; stand back and it's a hologram effect. The first image shows clearly the hologram effect available to the eye of the viewer. From a review of her show of box constructions in Providence, Rhode Island: "Viewing her box constructions is a lot like a walk in the moonlight. What we know, or think, to be true in the hard brightness of daytime reality dissolves into an amorphous space of multiple possibilities and perspectives." Born in Purdys, New York, Elspeth Halvorsen is the daughter, granddaughter, and mother of professional artists. She has studied at prestigious academic and artistic institutions includingthe New School for Social Research, the Art Students League, and the Académie de la Grande Chaumière. In 1955, she moved to Provincetown, Massachusetts, establishing her home and studio in the former residence of Mark Rothko. Provincetown not only remains her home but also acts as a personal, social, and artistic source of inspiration for her work. Shortly after arriving in Provincetown, Halvorsen and her husband, the late Tony Vevers...
