Nathan Lee
'Phoenix, ' by Nathan Lee, Mixed-Media Sculpture

2023

About the Item

African-American artist Nathan Lee's mixed-media sculpture, 'Phoenix,' explores the idea of resurrection and reinvention. The figure reaches for an unseen goal having been reborn from a hardened shell similar to a moth emerging from a chrysalis. Once the spirit has incubated, it is ready to go forth to fulfill a new destiny. The sculpture is 53.5" in height and sits on a wooden base. The female figurative work begins at the base and emerges as a biomorphic form as the arms lift upward. The patina is a golden metallic with silver and rust undertones. Nathan Lee is a multimedia artist and illustrator from Oklahoma, United States. Best known for his paper based sculptures, Lee works in a variety of styles and mediums. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and featured in various publications.

  • 'Untitled Assemblage #S3-23', by John Wolfe, Mixed Media Abstract Sculpture
    Located in Oklahoma City, OK
    John Wolfe's Mixed Media Abstract Sculpture, "Untitled Assemblage #S 3-23" brings together wood, steel, ceramic elements, and acrylic paint. The warm colors of the wood and painted ceramic elements soften the feel of the rectilinear arrangement. The shallow depth of the work gives the sculpture a kind of "drawing" quality while the shadows it casts lend a more expansive feel. The heavy, dark wood base anchors all aspects of the work in place. This work is the perfect tabletop piece. It's large enough to command attention, but also subtle in its open framework arrangement. John Wolfe was born in Vernon...

  • 'Danae, ' by ArmanH, Bronze Sculpture
    By Arman Hambardzumyan
    Located in Oklahoma City, OK
    This 20.47" x 9.44" x 10.62" bronze sculpture by Armenian artist, Arman Hambardzumyan, was created in 2013 and depicts the tragedy of the Greek goddess Danae. The artist's interpretation of this classical Greek myth, where an oracle foretold Danae would bear a son who would kill her father, and in an attempt to evade this, Acrisius, her father, imprisoned her. The king of Gods - Zeus, desired Danae and came to her in the form of golden rain. The oracle came true, Danae conceived a son, Perseus, who killed Acrisius by accident. The expressive love between Danae and Zeus is imitated by the naked body of a woman and a golden shower on her body. "The image of a woman always inspires me in both physical and spiritual beauty. In this sculpture, I tried to express the image of a woman with her soul, which has no smell, taste and is not tangible. The contour of the beautiful shimmering body of a woman allows you to feel the presence of the female soul inside."--ArmanH Arman is an Armenian artist represented in several major collections around the world including the Terra Garden in Kikinda (Serbia), Contemporary Hall of the National Museum of Fine Arts (Chisinau, Republic of Moldova), Boyajyan Center for the Arts (Prague, Czech Republic), and at private collections in Europe, Asia and in the USA. This work was exhibited in 2015 in 2015 Myths, Folk Art Museum after Hovhannes Sharambeyan. Yerevan, Armenia. Exhibit coordinator: Armine Beglaryan; and at the Art Expo, New York, April 21-24, 2017, organized by Redwood Art...
