About the Item
Unsung Heroes by Gary Alsum
Representational Figurative Bronze Sculpture
27x18x14" ed/14, #2 available
A young worker's family gathers either before or after a day's work, the father holds a lunch pail, the mother holds a girl and has a basket of garden pickings next to her. They embrace and look into each other's eyes with pride and security.
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."
