Abstract Geometric Cubist Painted Wood Sculpture Head Italian Neo Figurative Art
By Italo Scanga
Located in Surfside, FL
This painted wood assemblage sculpture by Italo Scanga, epitomizes the characteristics of his oeuvre. Polychrome head portrait bust.
This was signed on a brass or bronze plaque but that has gone missing. It is unsigned. I believe there might be a studio stamp on the bottom.
Italo Scanga (June 6, 1932 - July 7, 2001), an Italian-born American artist, was known for his sculptures, prints and, paintings, mostly created from found objects. In his youth in Calabria, Italy he worked as a cabinetmaker's apprentice and studies sculpture with a man who carved statues of saints.
Italo Scanga was an innovative neo Dada, neo-Expressionist, and neo-Cubist multimedia artist who made assemblage, collage, sculptures of ordinary objects and created prints, glass, and ceramic works. Modern Italian abstract geometric folk art.
Scanga's materials included natural objects like branches and seashells, as well as kitsch figurines, castoff musical instruments and decorative trinkets salvaged from flea markets and thrift shops. He combined these ingredients into free-standing assemblages, which he then painted. Although visually ebullient, the results sometimes referred to gruesome episodes from Greek mythology or the lives and deaths of martyred saints.
He considered his artistic influences to be sweepingly pan-cultural, from African sculpture to Giorgio de Chirico. He often collaborated with the sculptor Dale Chihuly, who was a close friend.
Constructed of wood and glass, found objects or fabric, his ensembles reflect a trio of activities—working, eating, and praying. These activities dominate the lives of those who live close to the land, but they are also activities that are idealized by many who contemplate, romantically, a simpler, bucolic life.
Italo graduated from Michigan State University where he befriended fellow artists Richard Merkin and David Pease. He studied under Lindsey Decker who introduces him to welding and sculpture after his initial interest in photography. Also studies with Charles Pollock, the brother of Abstract Expressionist Jackson Pollock. His first teaching job was at University of Wisconsin (through 1964). where he met Harvey Littleton, a fellow instructor. He later moves to Providence, Rhode Island,I to teach at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). Is colleagues with artists Richard Merkin and Hardu Keck. Starts a correspondence with HC Westermann. Spends summers teaching at Brown University; colleague of Hugh Townley. Moves to State College, PA, and teaches at Pennsylvania State University for one year. Meets artists Juris Ubans, Harry Anderson, Richard Frankel, and Richard Calabro, who remain friends throughout his career.
1967: David Pease helps him get a tenure track position at Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia, PA, . Artists he works closely with include Ernest Silva, Lee Jaffe, Donald Gill, and William Schwedler. Meets graduate student Dale Chihuly while lecturing at RISD and develops a lifelong friendship.
1969: One person exhibition, Baylor Art Gallery, Baylor University, Waco, TX. Works very closely with students Larry Becker and Heidi Nivling (who later run a gallery in Philadelphia, PA), and Harry Anderson. Welcomes many artists into his home including Donald Judd, Dan Flavin, Bruce Nauman (a former student), Vito Acconci, Ree Morton and Rafael Ferrer.
1973: "Saints Glass" at 112 Greene Street Gallery, NYC. Installation at the Institute of Contemporary Art at University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA. Meets Gordon Matta Clark and contributes to an artist cookbook. Goes to Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, WA, founded by Dale Chihuly, as a visiting artist. He continues to work there annually through 2001. Works over the years with Pilchuck artists Richard Royal, Seaver Leslie, Jamie Carpenter, Joey Kirkpatrick, Flora Mace, Robbie Miller, Billy Morris, Buster Simpson, Toots Zynsky, Howard Ben Tre...

Polish Modernist Man Leaping Leopard Bronze Expressionist Art Sculpture
By Dominik Albinski
Located in Surfside, FL
Signed bronze from small edition of 8. plus 4 artists proofs
Dominic Albinski, was born in South Africa, in 1975. He started sculpting, at
a young age, at the Art Classes of Mercia Desmond, in Johannesburg. From the
start, his talent for capturing movement, and character in his human, and animal
figures was remarkable. Dominic had a happy childhood, spending his time in the
studio, where he studied art and anatomy, which was later to become one of the
major themes of his sculptures. He also spent a lot of time on the South African
coast; Durban, North Coast and Cape, Plettenburg Bay and in the bush Kruger
Park, Okovango Swamps, Chobe and Pilansberg game reserves. He was a good
student, but preferred sculpting in his studio, among his artworks, than studying.
After finishing High School (St John’s College), he left for Paris, to start a life
of independence, in the French capital, famous for artists like Rodin, Bugatti,
Carpeaux, Daumier, Giacometti, and Picasso, who inspired him. He was excepted
into the prestigious Institute of Political Science. However, his passion for
sculpture, made him choose sculpture as a career.
He started studying sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, and
with the British Sculptor, James Butler in England. Here, he learnt observation and
techniques that would stand him in good stead later, when he came back to
France, as a Professor of Communication at the renowned Ecole Francaise
D’Attache de Presse near the Champs Elysees. He had his first major exhibition at
the Arnaud Gallery in Verneuil sur Avre in Normandy. A collector, found interest
in his work, and created a vast collection of his bronzes, as well as promoting
Dominic in various galleries in the region of Normandy, and Touraine, such as
Galerie 21 and Club de Arche de Noe, in Tours and Galerie des Remparts, and
Eclat de Verre, in Le Mans. He also exhibited in La Rochelle in the Galerie Hourdin,
and Bordeaux at the Galerie des Remparts. During this period he studied
Literature at the Sorbonne.
In Paris, several galleries took Dominic’s work, including Galerie Arcima, on
Rue St Jaques, Galerie Herouet, in the Marais, Galerie Etienne de Causans on rue
de Seine, or Galerie Mouvances, on Place des Vosges. Dominic participated in a
wildlife exhibition in Trocadero Center, and at the Hotel de Ville of Puteux. His
sculpture Madness, was chosen to be exhibited as a finalist at the Brain-Up
competition, in the Palais de Congres. This impressive sculpture, measuring 1m 60
is in the collection of the Hospital in Lille, and the Mandela Collection in Sandton
South Africa, among other collections.
In Poland, he had an exhibition in the Canadian Embassy Residence, in the
South African Embassy, and in the French Embassy. His work “Man with Pipe” is in
the collection of the Canadian Ambassador. His work “Portrait of Agnes” was
acquired by the South African Ambassador who, opened Dominic’s exhibition in
the Jagellonian University in Krakow, Holiday Inn, and in Galeria Mokotow, in
Warsaw. He had an exhibiton in the Warsaw Financial Center on Emili Platter
Street, and in the Sculpture Gallery on Jana Pawla street. Later, he exhibited in
the Gallery of the Polish War Museum on Krakowskie Przedmiescie, on Nowy
Swiat 44, in the Center of Promotion of Culture, Mazowieckie Center of Culture
and in the Jan Nowak Jezorianski Center. His work was showcased in the
Napiorkowska Gallery, Zapiecek Gallery on the square of the Old Town in Warsaw,
Hunters Gallery, and Warsaw Art Gallery in the Marriot Hotel, and sold on various
Auctions, such as Rempex, Agra Art, and Polswiss.
Back in South Africa, Dominic had much success among his native art
galleries, having his first major exhibition at the Mandela Square Gallery, in
Sandton. Art Galleries, hearing of his exhibitions in France, took his work, such as
the Cherie de Villiers Gallery, in the Mall, in Rosebank, and the Van den Berg
Gallery, in Potchefstroom. Dominic also took his work to the USA, where he
exhibited at the Modern Show in New York, and at the Dauphin Descours Gallery
on Madison Avenue, and the Yew Tree House Antiques Gallery in New York, as
well as the Geary Gallery, in Darion, and the Lions Gallery...
