About the Item

Although this whimsical sculpture by Allan Winkler has the look of outsider art, this ceramic work stems from the art school-trained artist’s interest in the Chicago Imagists. This group of artists added an urban twist to their surreal works by incorporating snippets of popular culture, naïve art, and the gritty detritus of city life. Winkler revels in his imagination with this fanciful series of ceramic figures, celebrating diversity and depicting the everyday with an unexpected twist. Winkler plays with proportion and gesture to explore the uncanny and represent life in a way that amuses and delights.

“Tiny Celadon Green Jacket" Steel Sculpture by Gordon Chandler
By Gordon Chandler
Located in Chicago, IL
Upon discovering a weathered steel drum that had been warped to resemble the sleeve of a garment, artist Gordon Chandler was inspired to embark on a series of kimono sculptures formed from found metal scraps. With an eye to the aesthetic possibilities of this humble material, Chandler invests the reclaimed steel with sculptural fluidity and a wry sense of form. Flattened with the center portion rolled out and the sides left open, this discarded barrel takes on the look of a miniature jacket. Coated with a mint green finish, the eroded metal appears as draped fabric, folded back to form a simple collar. The sculpture is finished with the artist's initials stamped...
