steel "Smokestacks," purposefully created as "urban

attack the surface exemplifies industry under siege.

Founder
/ Exhibited Ongoing
David Boyajian |
|
I often work on a series of sculptures inspired by plant
forms found in nature on my property here at Sculpture
Barn.
My most recent series of pieces, the Unfurlings are
inspired by young ferns. My intention is to capture the
rhythm of their metamorphosis with my forms rather than
depict them realistically.

Sharon Wandel
s a longtime Sculptors Guild member who joins poetry and
nature with the metaphorical and realistic in her bold, but
delicate bronze sculptures.
Her work often embodies the universal symbolism of freedom -
the bird.
Elected to the National Academy of Design, she has always
enjoyed creative adventure that inspires her work; for
example, an unique opportunity to show in Japan, study the
language, study the culture, and interpret the experience in
her art and expression |

Glenn Zweygardt,
professor emeritus of Alfred University works with bronze,
glass, stone and steel to accomplish extraordinary, symbiotic
"constructs."
His "Liminal Gateway," a major highlight of Sculpture Barn's
outdoor spread, entices one to enter, to move forward with
strength, but with a succinct lightness.

J. Pindyck Miller, a
self-billed constructionist, a sensation-sculptor who seeks to
create a "presence that shares a space."
His aluminum wind sculpture, a central element of Sculpture
Barn's unique outdoor retrospective, enjoys the sense of
movement that recalls the spirit of the Wright Brothers or
Robert Fulton or Eli Whitney. Movement is ever timely, by its
nature.

David Gelfman's star
series' portals, flame cut out of plate steel and bolted,
reflect our need for an iconic heritage as we move ever faster
into the 21st century.
Gelfman’s work underscores our sense of time, "being in the
now," and knowing there is that mysterious universe, a machine
we have yet to fathom. |
