About the Item

Large welded steel sculpture, "A Way Through" by Philadelphia based artist David Tothero. This sculpture has strong graphic imagery of curves and angles. The height is 37 inches and it's suitable for both indoor and outdoor display. Signed with the artists signature in lower corner. About the artist: David was born and raised in rural Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. After graduating from the York Academy of Art, a school based on the principals of the Bauhaus, he moved to Philadelphia and began a career in graphic design. A sculptor friend taught David how to weld and let him use his studio and tools in exchange for taking care of his property while he was away traveling. That was the start of working in steel, creating large welded sculptures, and the beginning of a new creative direction. David sees a direct connection in his metal sculptures to the transformation of letter forms and shapes used in the graphic design process. To quote the innovative and influential sculptor David Smith - "sometimes when I start a sculpture, I begin with only a realized part, the rest is travel to be unfolded, much in the order of a dream". David has had his work exhibited at prestigious institutions like the Woodmere Art Museum, the Michener Museum, and the Delaware Center for Contemporary Arts. Beyond exhibitions, his monumental sculptures have found permanent homes in public spaces such as Friends of Palumbo Park in Philadelphia and the Ironstone Sculpture Garden in Alloway, NJ.
