About the Item
Made of Stainless Steel
California born and educated sculptor Matt Gil graduated from San Jose State University, and his work has been widely exhibited throughout California since 1977. His sophisticated, subtle metal works are highly technical and refined, and his use of color and negative space are bold surprises. Matt Gil says of his process:
“The more I visualize the mood or the feeling of a particular piece, as well as the process of constructing a new piece, the easier it is to build. Sometimes it feels like the pieces build themselves. My sculpture-building process is like planning a trip, first I’m going here then I’m going there. If I get a bit lost I look at the drawing/map and I get back on track. Building sculptures has now become more and more entertaining for me with each and every piece, and I enjoy it when one piece generates many spin-offs. The time and place I grew up is reflected in my work. Each piece has called to me and jumped off the page of the sketchbook as if it was real and wanted to be in the world. All my sculptor heroes call out to me and say 'build this one,' or 'build that one,' or 'this piece needs more work and thought before you can make it.' 'Or maybe draw this one again and see that it has soul.Build it and give it a soul so that it will survive and live beyond me.'”

- Stellar Motion, #25 (Square Frame)By Moto OhtakeLocated in Napa, CAOn display at Auberge du Soleil Moto Ohtake views kinetic sculpture as a learning process in which to explore the mechanics and structural engineering of forms in motion. His playful series of kinetic pieces manifest energy and vitality. Departing from shapes and structures found in nature, Ohtake seeks to interact with the environment through his pieces and to mirror the universal order of our cosmos. The sculptures' gyroscopic configurations create unpredictable responses to the wind and an infinite number of variations in its motion. The parts are securely welded and constructed to withstand most wind conditions. Ohtake, a native of Tokyo, Japan, graduated in 1982 from the San Francisco Art Institute with a master of fine arts degree in sculpture. In 2005 he started instructing at De Anza...Category

- FRANKIE SAYS RELAX SERIESLocated in Istanbul, 34FRANKIE SAYS RELAX series. (Frankie Goes to Hollywood is a very popular British band popular. The group's 1983 debut single Relax was banned by the BBC in 1984 while at number six in the charts and subsequently topped the UK Singles Chart for five consecutive weeks, going on to enjoy prolonged chart success throughout that year and ultimately becoming the seventh best selling UK single of all time. ) According to the artist; The idleness save the world, everything will begin one day by not going to work. In ancient Athena, working was attributed only to the slaves. As for today, the monopolies who direct world politics and economy, do not eschew from provoking war for their own interests, and make people ill and then dooms to medicine have created their own modern slaves of consumption with their so-called aims of development, growth and welfare society.
