Frederick Hart
"Ex Nihilo Fragment 7", Frederick Hart, Bronze Sculpture, Woman Figure

2002

About the Item

Ex Nihilo Fragment 7 is a detail from the full-scale plaster from the final stone sculpture of Ex Nihilo, commissioned as part of the Creation Sculptures at Washington National Cathedral. Bronze editions were made later and authorized by Washington National Cathedral. Fragment 7 is edition number 59 out of 65. This is the last Fragment 7 that was made at the foundry. There will be no more made. If you are looking for stunning, and authentic artwork by Frederick Hart, then this is it. This sculpture's impressive craftsmanship and size are second to none, making it truly one of his most stunning and desirable bronze sculptures ever. The torso of a nude woman emerging in relief from the bronze background is designed with Hart's fascinating genius, decorated with intricate detail, and finished with a fabulous patina, as he pays tribute to the creation of humankind. The base of the sculpture is slightly damaged with scuff marks and nicks. We have attached photos of these imperfections in the base but the bronze itself is in perfect condition. "I saw Ex Nihilo (Out of Nothingness) as a single expression of creation, as a metamorphosis of divine spirit and energy. The figures emerge from the nothingness of chaos, caught in the moment of eternal transformation - the majesty and mystery of divine force in a state of becoming." -Frederick Hart

"The Enigma of The Egg" Texas/Mexican Artist Studied with Zuniga
By Alberto Saucedo
Located in San Antonio, TX
Alberto Saucedo (Born 1960) Texas Artist (Sculptor/Painter) 21.5 inches tall Medium: Bronze 2016 "The Enigma of The Egg" Alberto was born in 1960. He was raised in Mexico City. Alberto Saucedo began his career as self-taught artist who demonstrated at a young age a remarkable talent and passion for art that eventually at seventeen years of age led him to formal studies at Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México and later on enrolled at San Diego City College. There he focused on Commercial Art and Interior Design. It was there, where he evolved his unique personal style. It was also at this time that he discovered the work of Master sculptor Francisco Zuñiga and studied sculpture with him. Sculpture subsequently became a major part of Saucedo’s work, and achieved his first real recognition in his field. Saucedo’s training has included a generous study of art history, where he incorporates his sensuous, spiritual and classical techniques, transforming it into a style that becomes evident in his work.
