About the Item
Sylvania 4 is a painted aluminum wall sculpture. It is light weight and easily installed with a single wall anchor, which is included. It is from a series of wall sculptures which exist somewhere between painting and sculpture. It is very three-dimensional, protruding from the wall a number of inches and casting interesting shadows. It surface has a sense of time, a patina of history.
It is made of welded aluminum, which is very durable, and painted in enamel paint protected by an archival varnish with UV protection.
When I was a kid we watched black and white television on a Sylvania TV set. The screen was somewhat oval in shape and between some TV shows a “test pattern” was shown. The screen would change to geometric shapes and numbers and the audio would become static and buzzing in nature. I found this fascinating, and often more interesting than the TV shows themselves.

Richard Taylor
Richard Taylor creates in his Milwaukee Riverwest studio. His artwork is both 2- and 3-dimensional, ranging from site-specific outdoor sculpture to paintings on canvas, to the fusion of painting and sculpture. He shows in galleries across the country, and has completed dozens of commissions for corporations, hospitals and municipalities nationwide. Influences on his work include music, poetry, and urban existence. Source material varies from postage stamps, found objects and signage to alphabets, numbers and literature. He plays the saxophone and is very influenced by both jazz and classical music. He served as the artist-in-residence for Quad/Graphics, a national printer, for eleven years, painting huge murals and creating site-specific sculptures. He has taught part-time at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, and continues to be an avid student of Art History. Travel to cultural destinations and time spent living in San Diego serve as influences on his work, as does the agricultural landscape of his native Wisconsin.
