"Table Round" by Joel Perlman
Welded steel
Joel Perlman has been creating complex sculptures out of steel, bronze, and aluminum since the early 1970's. While minimalism was the predominant style of his genration, Perlman chose to push his forms into ever-more complicated, gravity defying, configurations. Perlman investigates with originality. He expands, rather than appropriates, enriching our experience with industrial materials.
