Snow in the NSG Sculpture Garden

We are loving the first heavy snow of the season for Northern Colorado. It's always fun to see how mother nature adds her touch to the sculpture in the National Sculptors' Guild garden.

"Sculptures should actually look like the day the collector brought the sculpture into their collection, especially bronze."

Let us know if you need to be added to their route.

"Those brave sculptors who wouldn't be deterred from sharing their visions. ...put forth their best efforts and kept foundries, fabrication shops, and brick and mortar gallery doors open. Sculpture is a team sport in most instances requiring many hands." -John Kinkade from 'Sculpture in Today's World', Art of the West July/August 2017 Pick up a copy to read the full article....

New Shachtman Sculptures

6/30/2017

The National Sculptors' Guild Sculpture Garden is filling up for summer with new sculpture and blossoms. We are pleased to have three new pieces from Stephen Shachtman. click the images below to shop online.

Sculpture in the National Sculptors' Guild garden by Jane DeDecker, Stone Forest, and Stephen Shachtman. Shachtman is constantly seeking to find something new and stimulating in either a physical or cerebral sense. The sculptures he creates circulate with aesthetics in contemporary forms with influences and inspiration from, science, architecture, and techniques. These inspirations inform him to create series’ with specific dialogue due to process', dimensions, material usage, and overall presence. Depending on the sculptural forms and concepts, a few primary materials employed are; copper, glass, and steel. Some of the elements in Stephen’s work range from; hammered surfaces which have an organic aesthetic while overall forms tend to have clean lines with a minimalist approach yet are monolithic in presence. Some aesthetics are large-scale filigree in the metal that allows a viewer to see through the organic forms, while similar manipulation of glass elements are stacked to create positive and negative spaces. All pieces are affected by the orientation of light to unveil the personality of the sculptures, which create a 4th dimension of shadows and reflection as they emerge to produce an element of surprise.

Moulding Our Future Balcony

4/7/2017

On our trip to Boerne, Texas we installed a sculpture at a client's home. This ideal placement just happened to work out beyond comprehension - we knew Denny Haskew's mother and child sculpture

On our trip to Boerne, Texas we installed a sculpture at a client's home. This ideal placement just happened to work out beyond comprehension - we knew Denny Haskew's mother and child sculpture "Moulding Our Future" would look nice - but this exceeded everyone's expectations. The sandstone patina against the texas limestone, the flow of the composition against the archway. We think this is a perfect example of Living with Art.

Below are images from the installation. We hope you enjoy seeing sculptures in the air - we're happy to install your next fine art purchase.

Jane DeDecker's Water is also pictured.
