Frank Arnold
Bronze Sculpture “Surrender 8”

2018

About the Item

Frank Arnold is viewed as one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master guided by a personal mission to “turn on a light in the human soul,” through his passionate creation of “Messengers” from his deeper mind connection with Carl Jung's archetypal images, the collective unconscious, and Jungian Synchronicity. These unconscious forms from his deeper mind resonate as personal messages of universal acceptance, reaching out to the viewer. Arnold has been honored as IAD Artist of the year 2018 by International Artist Day, and 2013 FAC Horizon Artist Award. He has exhibited his artwork in numerous galleries, museums, and is in collections worldwide. Arnold divides his working days between oil painting in San Jose del Cabo, Baja Sur, Mexico and sculpting in Mexico City. In addition to oil paintings and bronze sculpture, Arnold has produced two books, the first of which, Frank Arnold Speaks” is a bilingual, English and Spanish biography covering his upbringing by adoptive parents, and the impact his experiences have had on his artwork. His second book, “Your Creative Imagination Unlocked,” is a collaborative effort with noted depth psychologist, Dr. Jim Manganiello. It includes an exploration of his own creative process and several observations and hypotheses by Manganiello with regard to Arnold’s work as well as that of other noted abstract artists, Cy Twombly, Wassily Kandinsky, Pablo Picasso, Mark Rothko and Banksy. This book delves into the deeper mind and how art can be a path to rediscovery of your creative imagination. The 30 inch tall rigid bronze figure appears wrapped and bound, almost pleading in stature, yet seems at one with its integral binding like an organic covering. The striations of the deep, ginger-bronze surface combined with smooth and stippled figuring seems to emit light rather than reflect. The artist’s signature “8” is set at the foot of the figure. Edition of 12. Thematic inspiration for many of Frank Arnold’s cast pieces is discovered through his work as an abstract figurative painter. The textures and finishes present a painterly effect, intentionally created by Arnold to compliment his oil on canvas paintings.
