About the Item

Richard Erdman's abstract sculpture "Salient I" is carved from gorgeous white Carrara marble from Italy. Made with companion piece "Salient II" (not shown here -- available in separate listing), Erdman focused specifically on the crescent shape: "Salient I" is an arrangement of six crescents, and "Salient II" seven. By restricting his visual vocabulary in this way, Erdman explains that he was “forced to work in a way where each crescent would be honored.” The pair are two of Erdman's rare sculptures that evoke a figure from certain angles, even as they remain very definitely abstract. These playfully curving works are models for two monumental sculptures also carved in gorgeous Carrara marble. They are available individually, as listed here, or as a pair. Dimensions include the white, square, marble base as shown. Shown in over 130 solo and group exhibitions throughout North America and abroad, Vermont sculptor Richard Erdman has been commissioned to create major works in stone and bronze for The PepsiCo Sculpture Gardens in New York, the Four Seasons Park in Singapore, The Minneapolis Institute of Art in Minneapolis, and Princeton University in New Jersey. His work is in extensive private collections in over 40 countries worldwide.

Abstract Marble Sculpture by Emile Gilioli
By Émile Gilioli
Located in Stamford, CT
This beautiful marble sculpture by Emile Gilioli is made of rose veined marble (white/pink). The sculpture is signed and dated on wooden base. "Emile Gilioli was born to a family on Italian shoemakers who had settled beside the Canal Saint-Martin. After the first World War, the family moved back towards Italy, settling in Nice. In 1932, Gilioli took courses at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs de Nice, notably with the future artist Marie Raymond. During the Second World War, Gilioli was mobilized in Grenoble where he passed the remainder of the conflict. He made the acquaintance of Andry Fracy, a conservationist at the Grenoble Musee des baux-arts and led him to discover cubism. After the war, Gilioli settled in Saint-Martin-de-La-Cluze near Grenoble, where he sculpted in his workshop. His art was associated in a certain way with the deeds of the French Renaissance. He became friendly with Thomas Gleb...
