Lois Teicher
Lois Teicher (b. in Detroit, Michigan) is a professional sculptor in practice for over thirty years. She is inspired by shape and form, and the seeking of ideas that flow from the visual. Along her journey, an awareness of the existence of Time/Space continuum compelled her to use space as a material her work. The profound idea of duality in dynamic tension, and the existence of energy, are themes often expressed, which flows directly from her search to understand and connect to the universal, often creating elaborate structures reflecting tension, out of objects found in nature. "My imagination served as a refuge from the emotional feeling's experiences in the company of my peers. My childhood angst was channeled into a positive force for creativity, enabling me to pursue a non-traditional career as an artist." Teicher attended Mumford High School in Detroit, Michigan and College for Creative Studies in Detroit in the late 1970's while raising a family. She also earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Ceramics from College for Creative Studies, and Master of Fine Arts in sculpture from Eastern Michigan University. Teicher has been presented with many grants and awards, Including the Michigan Governors Award for lifetime achievement, and twice winning The Pollock-Krasner. The book entitled, "The Sculpture of Lois Teicher" was published in 2019 with an essay written by MaryAnn Wilkinson, former Curator of Modern and Contemporary art at Detroit Institute of Arts. A documentary film in progress is titled: "Woman of Steel," featuring Lois along with other artists working in the Atlas Building on Gratiot Avenue in Detroit in the 1980's.

- Sujoon - Cornflower Portal - Large Lightweight Three-Dimensional Wall SculptureBy Atticus AdamsLocated in Los Angeles, CAAtticus Adams' organically composed modern metal sculptures embody the transformative power of contemporary art, illustrating the creation of beauty, meaning, and emotional impact from industrial materials. Using mostly aluminum mesh—generally found in screen doors, windows, and filters—he creates contemporary abstract sculptural artworks and installations, which resemble flowers, clouds, and other natural phenomena. Working in metal, Adams effortlessly transforms rigid material into airy, effervescent artworks. This 48-inch high by 44-inch wide and 4-inch deep metal sculpture is a lightweight form. It is created from aluminum and copper mesh, gesso, acrylic paint, and wire. It has metal rings affixed on the back which allows for easy installation. Atticus works spontaneously, feeling his way toward the objects that take shape in his mind as he shapes them almost entirely by hand. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Atticus grew up in West Virginia, steeped in traditional folk art. Several members of his family are self-taught artists, deeply involved in such crafts as wood carving and quilting. His formal art training includes stints at Yale, Rhode Island School of Design, and Harvard’s School of Architecture. Atticus has fond summer memories of screened-in porches back home and screen doors that practically dissolved the barrier between inside and outside, allowing the warmth and nature to permeate each day. This association continues to resonate in his art. “Metal mesh is a beautiful, flexible material that allows you to explore shadow and transparency in endless ways,” he says. “The material lends itself to these biomorphic shapes, which aren’t necessarily intentional . . . The sculptures seem fragile but are actually quite resilient—like nature itself.” A well-known sculptor, the organically inspired artworks of Atticus Adams are held in public and private collections and are exhibited in galleries and museums across the United States.
