About the Item

Hit and Run by Gary Alsum Figurative bronze sculpture 33x12x20" ed/49 Fly Fisherman casting (The fly rod unscrews for shipping, artwork will be foam-in-place custom packed) ABOUT THE ARTIST: Taking the knowledge passed on from artists such as Fritz White, Glenna Goodacre & George Lundeen; Gary feeds into his bronze sculptures his own experiences and history. The child-at-play & sport motifs capture the Spirit of America. “The challenge of sculpture is depicting the movement and energy of a single moment. The central theme of my work is celebrating the gift of life. Most of my work in the last few years has been commissioned. I enjoy the challenge of combining the client’s vision and needs with my own ideas to create lasting depictions of significant memories in their lives. Although I am open to considering many concepts involving the human figure, I am particularly drawn to capturing subjects in motion. Movement, after all, is what captures our attention. Children at play and athletes in motion are my favorite subjects because of the passion for life they demonstrate. It is a constant challenge to capture these qualities in bronze and pass that on to the viewer. When developing each new sculpture my primary concern is artistic integrity."

  • Nautilus
    Located in Oswestry, GB
    The Nautilus shell is an excellent example of mathematics inherent within lifeforms of the natural world. As Davies consistently uses the 'golden ratio' (1:1.618) to proportion his work, he thought it important to exemplify this in his subject matter. The Fibonacci sequence (where each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers) and the logarithmic spiral are also inherent here. The bronze shell is mounted on a black granite base in a way that creates an optical illusion suggesting it is levitating above the base. This bronze Nautilus...
