Charles Arnoldi, Untitled (wall relief)

1987

In this sculpture, rendered in bronze, Arnoldi’s attention to organic shape and form is matched with his interest in materials that demonstrate permanence through their manufacture and longevity. For artworks like this, Arnoldi collected foundry scraps that he incorporated into metal sculptures and constructed forms. Arnoldi fabricated this work at Dwight Hackett Projects, working at Art Foundry in Santa Fe with metal finishers to assemble the wall piece.
