Welded Steel Table Sculpture "Transcending Time and Space" by D. Phillips

About the Item

Welded steel table sculpture "Transcending Time and Space" by sculptor David Phillips. Acquired from the collection of the artist. Trained as an architect at Penn State in the 1960s, David Phillips has had a long and productive relationship with sculpture. From the 1970s until 1998, it was more of a hobby, he produced only a handful of pieces per year. In 1998 that all changed; David was in a serious motorcycle accident and paralyzed from the waist down, that is when the productivity really exploded. David hired an assistant to hold the materials in place while he welded them together: found metal objects and machine stock, sheet metal and bolts and car parts. Never showing his work to the public until 2010, the sculptures decorated his 30-ACRE property in New Jersey. Every piece he produced was one of a kind, and his creativity and the joy he received from the act of making is apparent in all of his work. Measures: 33" W 17.25" H x 16" D.

A Bronze Wall Sculpture of a Bomber Jacket by Scott Hanson
Located in Lambertville, NJ
A unique patinated bronze sculpture in the form of a 1940's leather bomber jacket hanging on a wall mounted coat rack. The 1940's bomber jacket. It is one of the few items that has really transcended both fashion and trends. People are wearing these jackets today in the same way they have for the last six decades. It's a symbol of freedom, of the rebel in us, or a certain kind of social stigma, a certain attitude. Hanson chooses to isolate and immortalize a man's leather jacket. The choice becomes a comment on the power in our culture of image per se. A comment on the ascendance of personal style and image, via our possessions and fashion, to a consuming culture value. Seemingly casually tossed over a hook, yet frozen there in bronze, the jacket evokes an entire range of masculine stereotypes celebrated by the media-cowboys, mavericks and rebels of our time. The open road, macho bravado, rugged individuality, sex appeal. Yet the presence of this lone jacket equally evokes the very personal, if anonymous, history of its wearer. Like the cast-form-life sculpture of George Segal, it expresses mystery, even poignancy, of its owners absence. As in much of Hanson's art, this culture manages both to critique and also to value such material icons of our culture. Scott Hanson...
