Beatific Biker
Recently I submitted a sculpture to the Fairfield Art Association membership exhibit. My art piece was one of two, three-dimensional art pieces on display. There were 43 artists with 83 entries.
My artwork, one of four, was selected as “Outstanding Artwork”.
The judge’s comments are in the following notes.
The bronze sculpture depicts a man standing in a traditional contrapposto pose, looking downward pensively. His long hair and beard give him a somewhat biblical look, but he is wearing jeans and holding a motorcycle helmet against his hip. Classical ideas contrast with contemporary elements in this elegant sculpture, reminding the viewer that even ordinary, everyday things and people can be seen through the lens of millennia of art history.
