Philip Simmons
Free Standing Sculpture "Cowboy" Double Sided Red

2009

About the Item

51” x 45” x 6" Edition of 3 (resin, vinyl) This free standing figurative sculpture of a cowboy with pistols drawn, is created with a 'cutout' feel. Both sides are created in cast bright red resin, with a wood grain vinyl edge which follows the contour of the figure. In Philip Simmons' series of sculpture made of resin, metal, and vinyl, he references pop sources and the news media to comment on American culture. One of the themes that unifies this work is a nostalgia for a mythic golden age in American society that was created on television and in the movies. In this media landscape, cowboys and astronauts occupy the same cultural space. These pieces start with an iconic image Simmons sources from popular culture and transforms into line contour layout compositions. The fields of intense color are created with a cast resin, giving a reflective, gloss surface while the finely articulated lines of the figures defined in metal.
