About the Item
"Night and Day, Cranes" by Chapel
35x10x10" 4/21
Mixed Media: Cast Bronze, Stainless Steel, Granite Base
The base takes on more significance in this sculpture as an illusion of water, the imagery etched into the polished granite is a reflection of the cast bronze crane couple who rest on one leg while preening together.
This particular piece is available from the estate of the artist. It is in excellent condition. This edition closed early due to the death of the artist, all molds have been destroyed.
Shipping price includes the custom packing necessary for safe transport of fine art.
Chapel, 1948-2021, Artist's Statement:
“I was raised on the Western Slope of Colorado, with almost unfettered access to the American wilderness. I currently reside on a sailboat in Oakland, CA with my studio in nearby San Leandro. I work with permanent materials including bronze, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, glass and stone. It is my contention that a work of art must include a complete environment, not just a single object. In my opinion, it is very difficult to convey meaning with either pure abstraction, or pure representation. Describing an abstract concept with another abstraction does not define the subject.
There is nothing in a completely non-objective artwork from the viewers experience upon which to base some meaning. One the other hand, a completely realistic presentation doesn't define an abstraction any better than a dictionary. This is why my sculpture is a blend - the symbolic joining of modern man with primitive experience.
They are in-depth studies of the archetypes and symbols used to communicate their relevance to our everyday lives. Mythology, poetry and art are humanity's attempt to describe the mysteries of life which are beyond our ability to consciously comprehend. This is the appeal of the visual arts, poetry, literature and music; they excite an emotional response, or memory that transcends mere words.” - Ron Chapel, 1948-2021
