Large Carved Wood Menorah Sculpture
By Randy Shull
Located in Surfside, FL
Randy Shull is an artist who works fluidly between a variety of
mediums, including furniture design, spatial design, painting, and
landscape design. He is highly acclaimed for his rich and sensual use
of color and space. Awarded a North Carolina Arts Council Fellowship
in 1994, an NEA Southern Arts Federation grant in 1995, and a master
residency at Oregon School of Arts & Crafts in Portland, Randy has
also had four solo shows in New York in the past decade. His work is
included in a number of important museum collections including The
Brooklyn Museum; The High Museum in Atlanta; The Renwick Museum of
American Art in Washington, D.C.; The Mint Museum of Craft & Design in
Charlotte; Racine Museum of Art; The Gregg Museum of Art & Design, and
Museum of Art and Design in New York. Randy stays involved in the
local community by serving on the board of the Asheville Art Museum.
Randy maintains studios in Asheville, NC and Merida, Mexico.
In 2008 and 2009 Randy’s work was the subject of a twenty-year
retrospective that opened on January 24th at the Gregg Museum of Art &
Design at NC State, and traveled to the San Francisco Museum of Craft
& Design as well as The Bellview Art Museum and The Ogden Museum of
Southern Art. Reviews of the exhibition can be found in the Raleigh
News and Observer and the San Francisco Chronicle.
The craft revival in the 1920s brought a renewed interest in
traditional native crafts and folk art at places like the John C.
Campbell Folk School and Penland School of Crafts. Using pocket
knives, carvers transformed scraps of wood into dolls and toys for
their children. As tourism developed, carving became an important
source of income, and successful carving centers developed in
Cherokee, Asheville, Tryon and Brasstown.
Seaborn Bradley was known for making war clubs, tomahawks and walking
sticks; Will West Long and his son Allen made masks used in native
celebrations; and Hayes Lossiah crafted traditional Cherokee blowguns,
darts, bows and arrows. Goingback Chiltoskey and Amanda Crowe became
influential teachers for the Cherokee community. Eleanor Vance and
Charlotte Yale, coming to N.C. most likely as missionaries,
established Biltmore Estate Industries in Asheville in 1905, initially
focusing their production on carving and later adding weaving. In
1915, the pair moved south of Asheville to establish Tryon Toy-Makers
and Wood-Carvers. In the 1930s, several folk art wood carvers were known in and around Brasstown, home of the John C. Campbell Folk School, including
Floyd Laney, William Julius “W. J.” Martin, who carved traditional
animals, and influential carving teacher Parker Fisher. Other carvers,
like Herman and Mabel Estes, made mostly functional items including
serving platters. “Brasstown Carvers” was established in the 1950s,
known for its small, highly polished animals and nativity scene
figures. Today, the Southern Highlands Craft Guild and Piedmont
Craftsmen give visibility to the finest wood artists in the state. The
aptly named Woody family, now in its seventh generation of crafting
traditional wooden rockers and chairs by hand without nails or glue,
maintains its business in Spruce Pine while the work of high-end
Asheville furniture artists like Randy Shull and Brent Skidmore
appears in venues like the Mint Museum Uptown in Charlotte. Renowned
Saluda woodturner Stoney Lamar creates art with a lathe, and Bynum
outsider artist Clyde Jones invents “critters” with his chainsaw. All
have earned international recognition. A blurring of lines between
craft and visual art also is evident today. Casar resident Bob Trotman...

Book Sculpture Paper Mache Enamel Painting Jean Lowe Please Don't Eat Daisy
By Jean Lowe
Located in Surfside, FL
Jean Lowe (American, b. 1960)
Book-form sculpture, 2004
"Please Don't Eat Daisy",
Enamel painted papier-mache
Hand signed and dated verso
Dimensions 10.5"h x 12.75"w x 4"d
This title is well suited for vegetarians, vegans and plant based diets!
Jean Lowe is a California-based painter and sculptor. She creates installations and sculptural works of enamel-painted papier-mâché. Lowe earned a B.A. from UC Berkeley in 1983. She earned her MFA from UC San Diego in 1988.
She was a lecturer at UC San Diego from 1992 to 2008.
Lowe's installations are handmade, labor intensive and visually playful installations, with papier-mâché furnishings and objects juxtaposed to site specific wall painting. Lowe says of her installations, "Intellectually I am driven by an interest in challenging a status quo anthropocentric world view and formally interested in marrying that content to a 'domestic' decorative esthetic." Many of Lowe's installations have quoted 18th and 19th century French decoration, rife with romanticized images of animals and nature and imbued with a sense of class and privilege. Into this fabric she substitutes or integrate corresponding contemporary attitudes--both about our treatment of the land and its other inhabitants and our attitudes regarding decoration: the wrestling match between high and low art. Wry humor. Lowe creates sculptural representations of everyday objects using papier-mâché and enamel paint. She is known for her papier-mâché books and has created a large collection of them with evocative and amusing titles. Her work Books and Ideas in an Age of Anxiety comprises a collection of them in display cases and is situated in Byers Hall at UCSF as part of the J. Michael Bishop Art Collection at Mission Bay.
Among the book titles are: Accelerated Zen Buddhism: How to Win at the Hereafter. Anxiety: The Unexploited Weight Loss Tool. Artistic Mammography. The Eco-Tourist's Guide to Las Vegas. A Guide to Box Wines. Hot Buttered Cop Porn. How to Dominate Women. Militant Feminist Veganism for All. The Triumph of Minimalism and other such titles.
Exhibitions
Lowe has exhibited in both New York and Los Angeles. She participated in the 1994 exhibition Bad Girls West.
Curated by Marcia Tucker, Bad Girls was a humorous and transgressive look at gender and feminist issues. It featured work from artist across many media, including photo, painting, sculpture, performance, film, comics, advertisements, writings and more.

1970s Large Wood, Copper Inlay Sculpture Wall Relief Tropical Flowers Motif
By Helen Weber
Located in Surfside, FL
Helen Weber
Large wall hanging wood and metal sculptural relief in a tropical Hawaiian or Polynesian motif with tropical flowers.
"Art belongs everywhere from cruise ships to churches" This has been the mantra of Helen Webber since she began her career in the 1970’s creating hundreds of art works for public spaces throughout the United states and abroad. It was her strongly held belief that art can touch the spirit of many more people than those whose art experiences are limited to the halls and walls of museums and galleries. Her bold and richly hued art works executed in a wide variety of media, such as tapestry, glass, metal wood and clay have been installed in universities, corporations, medical facilities, cruise ships, hotels, religious spaces, community and civic centers and even in a train station. Over the years many architects and interior designers have collaborated with Helen Webber finding that her work enhanced their designed environments, giving her the opportunity to create art for well known corporations as well as multitudes of residences. It is the tapestries that she is best known for, and it is this medium that dominates the largest body of her work, which was first introduced to the design world in the mid 1970's. The tapestries utilize a fabric collage technique combining an array of designer upholstery fabrics such as velvets, brocades, worsteds, jacquards, mohair, hand woven woolens, among many others. Yarns of all kinds are integrated into the tapestries surrounding the edges of each fabric piece.
Some clients, who saw that Webber’s particular art style could be expressed in a variety of media, offered her commissions in stained and etched glass, wood collage, sculpted tile...
