Biomorphic Carved-Wood Sculpture

About the Item

An outstanding abstract carved-wood sculpture. A beautifully crafted, towering, biomorphic pillar with an intriguing, wonderfully undulating surface; an assortment of secretive openings bored-through; a jutting, counterbalancing appendage at the base. Wonderful patina from age. Mounted on ebonized wood plinth, likely original. A fine example of 1960s, American organic sculpture.

  • Red neon Orb sculpture copper, mirror polished stainless steel plinth
    By Mark Beattie
    Located in DE
    Small Red Neon Orb was first shown at London Art Fair 2018. The sculpture is mounted onto a mirror polished stainless steel plinth, which is perfect for displaying the piece on a table. Small Red Neon Orb also has a floor standing metal plinth, the plinth is 120cm in height, painted matt black and raises the sculpture to eye level. Plinth can be be boucht separately for 750 pounds. Working with various metals in all their contrasting properties of texture and finish, Mark can make industrial metal appear fluid, malleable and delicate. He continues to study different metals, looking at ways to manipulate and add movement to the material, and over the past 2 years has been developing ways in which neon or LEDs can complement his sculptures, adding movement to a piece and catching the viewer’s eye. Mark Beattie MRBS is an emerging sculptor who lives and works in London. Mark has had a remarkable career as a sculptor so far, having exhibited his work nationally, alongside highly reputable artists such as Tracey Emin, the late Lynn Chadwick, Helaine Blumenfeld and Jonathan Yeo...
