About the Item
Steel and acrylic lacquer paint.
Joseph Slusky's painted steel sculpture "Zongo" prominently features a circle and exuberant wave form among the angles, but look closer and you'll actually see the curve carried through every element of the sculpture. Semicircles around the tiered base, an arch in the rectangular vertical, and the gently sloping sides of the column under the circle -- even the cuboids have softly rounded corners. These details soften the geometric shapes and flat planes, adding an extra jolt of playfulness and unifying the many forms.
California-based sculptor Joseph Slusky says of his work: "Beyond the more immediate historical art roots of my work from the Cubist, Constructivist and Surrealist Movements is a sensibility in which everything one encounters in the visual realm is grist for absorption and sculptural transformation... My undergraduate degree in architecture has imbued my work with architectonic and structural references. The gestural, figurative aspect of my work can be traced to competitive gymnastics throughout my high school and college... The titles of the pieces, many of which come from geographical place names, reflect the belief that each work is symbolic of a new place traveled to and discovered."
