2018

About the Item

Abstracted, Judaica Maple Sculpture based upon Jewish Star Eric Pesso is recognized for his mind-bending carved creations, created from single trunks of neighborhood trees. In 2012, he was cited as one of the top 10 artists for GO from the Brooklyn Museum. He says, “Simply put, my goal is to create beautiful objects. There is no social or political content to the work, no battle cry or attempt to plumb the depths of the human condition. There is just an attempt to actualize abstract ideas as elegantly as I can, combined with a painstaking adherence to the craft of wood carving.” In 2012, the Brooklyn Museum sponsored the GO project, a borough-wide Open Studio Tour in which visitors were invited to vote on-line for their favorite artists. Of the 1800+ participating artists, Mr. Pesso was voted as one of the TOP TEN. In May, 2015, he won first prize for sculpture in the Salmagundi Club’s Juried Show in Greenwich Village.
