About This Item
N.p.: N.p., 2002. Ceramic fetish of human, animal and sea form. Measures 7 x 2 1/2 (W) x 1 1/4 inches. Signed and dated on upper left side. A powerful image in wonderful condition."The ceramic sculpture of Gary Spinosa is evocative of ancient idols and totemic ritual. Combining human, animal, and architectural forms, Spinosa seeks to materialize spiritual energy through his mysterious, yet serenely benevolent figures. For the artist, animals contain the keys to a universal language that bonds humanity at its most primal level. These sculptures, from towering grand constructions to diminutive “stones,” are imbued with deep sanctity and stillness, a sometimes disquieting mystery, myth, and perhaps even superstition. A review in “Cleveland Scene” noted, “Gary Spinosa's sculptures hark back to the days when art didn't just look pretty or express the individual's feelings, but served as a reminder of a higher power” (Canton Museum).Gary Spinosa is an American Postwar & Contemporary sculptor who was born in 1947. His work was featured in several exhibitions at key galleries and museums, including the Erie Art Museum and the Canton Museum.
