About the Item

Elegantly framed and ready to hang! Mark di Suvero Sketch for van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, 1972 Marker wash on paper Signed in graphite pencil by the artist on the lower right front Frame included: elegantly floated and framed in hand made museum frame with UV plexi Original drawing done with marker wash on paper signed at bottom right "Mark di Suvero" in graphite pencil. Given by the artist, in 1972, to a curator while preparing his Eindhoven exhibition. This "working" sketch depicts the sculpture that was later installed in front of the van Abbemuseum. In fact, di Suvero folded the sheet to have it with him during construction and installation. It has now been elegantly floated and framed in a black wood frame. Measurements: Framed: 15 x 17 x 1 inches Drawing: 15.25 x 11.25 inches Mark di Suvero biography Born in China to Italian parents, Mark di Suvero (b. 1933, Shanghai) immigrated to the U.S. as a child aged eight. An internationally renowned artist and pioneer in the use of steel, di Suvero has created vibrant and dynamic works of sculpture and painting throughout his sixty-year career, fusing vitality and movement with complex construction. His work has been shown consistently in galleries and museums worldwide including exhibitions of outdoor sculpture in the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and a number of cities in the United States. In 2023, the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas opened a major exhibition of di Suvero’s work. Public citywide shows have taken place in Paris, France; Venice, Italy; and New York City. Permanent installations of di Suvero’s sculpture are in Baltimore, Dallas, Grand Rapids, Houston, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, St. Louis, San Francisco, South Bend, and Toledo. In New York, di Suvero’s work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Storm King Art Center (Mountainville, NY). Di Suvero founded Socrates Sculpture Park in Queens, New York, in 1985. It became a public city park in 1998.
