Wire mesh wall sculpture by noted Idahoan Artist Eric Boyer 1995
About the Item
Exhibits and Links
In 1985 I started to explore in metals, being employed for five years in a metal working shop where I learned to forge, weld and fabricate decorative iron railings, furniture and other household items. Among these were the dozens of fireplace screens of various designs and sizes that I fabricated and assembled. Being fond of salvaged materials, I began to play with left over scraps of the #8 mesh that were discarded from the assembly process. Having always been attracted artistically to the human form, and for other reasons both ethereal and practical, I began to sculpt figures. At first small and rather timid, these mesh sculptures began to attract attention, resulting in my first exhibition, in 1989, of 3/4 life-size figures at Art on the Mountain in Wilmington, Vermont. Working with wire mesh continues to fascinate me after 20 years.

1999 Bronze Abstract Sculpture by Noted Mexican Artist Jonas Gutierrez Castillo
Located in Palm Springs, CA
A wonderful bronze abstract in the form of a female nude mounted on a terrazzo base. It is by the noted Mexican artist Jonas Gutierrez Castillo. It is signed Jonas 99 PA near the base. PA stands for Pruebas de Artista or Artist's Proof. The bronze has a beautiful warm brown gold patina. The base is a heavy terrazzo with lots of inclusions. The base has some losses to the edges which are pictured in detail. The bronze has some patina inclusions or spots, pictured as well.
One of the artist's more notable works is a massive bronze title the The Stone Eater on Puerto Vallarta's Malecon.
We've attached a biography of the artist courtesy of Galleria Dante of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico below:
Born in Guadalajara, Jalisco in 1966.
The artist began to sculpt at an early age. In 1980, he helped create the monumental public sculpture "La Estampida", which is located at a busy intersection in his hometown, near the emblematic building of the Hotel Riu.
Jonás Gutiérrez is known in Puerto Vallarta for his monumental 2.4-meter-high bronze and obsidian sculpture...

Bronze "Byte" by noted Artist Jeff Day
By Jeff Day
Located in Palm Springs, CA
An immense and heavy bronze by the noted artist Jeff Day. he is currently in China but we managed to converse with him. He identified the work and the approximate year it was cast and how heard it was to make. He thinks he signed it although we can't find his mark. it is quite impressive and has a beautiful gold flecked patina.
There is a fracture in the center small and hard to spot that occurred in the casting. This is a unique piece. There are some minor losses to the patina near the base and minor nicks and scratches. The base has been repaired in one corner. One other corner is missing the wood trim, pictured. The piece and shows its age with age appropriate wear.
