Aluminum Cast Abstract Sculpture "Introspect" on Marble Base by James C. Myford

About the Item

Stunning large aluminum cast abstract sculpture "Introspect" on black marble base by noted sculptor James C. Myford, circa 1983. #2520 The piece is in very good vintage condition with no chips or cracks and measures 11" W x 7" D x 29.5" H; the marble base measures 7" W x 7" D x 1" H. The sculpture is signed and dated by the artist on the base.   James C. Myford (1940 - 2014) Myford's interest in aluminium began in 1970 when he attended a workshop sponsored by Alcoa at the art centre in Pittsburgh. "I fell in love with aluminium as a material." Myford then began creating contemporary aluminium sculptures by using the casting process. He had the first one-man art exhibit of his works in Pittsburgh in 1972. The eighteen pieces of work produced for the show ranged from twelve inches to four feet. Several of these pieces were purchased by Pittsburgh art collectors. Thus his life as a sculptor was launched. Over the years Myford has created and sold many sculptures to both private and corporate collectors. He typically produces about fifteen pieces a year and can be working on as many as five or six at a time. Larger sculptures can take up to six to ten months to complete. Myford's sculptures are found in corporate, museum, university, public and private collections throughout the United States. His works are also in collections in Japan, Sweden, Venezuela, Australia and Brazil.
