About the Item

This 10.5" x 6" x 8" 3-D printed bust of Jesse Jackson was created by California based artist, Daniel Edwards. It is a unique 3D printed sculpture from the Civil Rights Portrait Series, hand signed by the artist. A work of contemporary academic realism in portraiture, painted with an acrylic metallic finish over earth tone and color finishes. The sculpture captures fine facial details including expressive eyes, a mustache, and realistic skin texturing that shows the capabilities of modern 3D printing technology. The subject is wearing what appears to be a ribbed turtleneck or high-collared sweater, with the textile pattern carefully reproduced in the print. The bust is mounted on a dark rectangular base, giving it a formal, commemorative presentation typical of portrait sculptures. The craftsmanship shows impressive attention to detail, from the subtle facial expressions and anatomical accuracy to the surface textures that give the piece a lifelike quality. Daniel A Edwards is an Assistant Professor of Sculpture at CSU Stanislaus. His works address celebrity and popular culture in ways that often stir controversy. The release of his art is generally accompanied by a press release. Edwards includes the idea of promotion and associative fame in the marketing of his art. Past public sculpture commissions by Edwards include Landmark for Peace: The Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy Memorial in Indianapolis. Edwards got his start as a mask maker in 1980 working for Death Studios in La Porte, Indiana, where he received his first sculpture training from Jeff Keim. He sculpted the comic character Zippy the Pinhead for Death Studios in 1983 under the guidance of its creator Bill Griffith. From 1981 to 1984, other works by Edwards for Death Studios were published in Starlog, Fangoria, Cinemagic, Heavy Metal, and Questar. In 1985, at the invitation of fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez, Edwards made his first visit to New York City. Edwards frequently hung out at Antonio’s studio from 1985 to 1986, where he was occasionally encouraged to draw alongside Antonio, from the models hired to model for Antonio’s 1001 Arabian Nights. In 1986, Edwards was briefly introduced to Andy Warhol by Antonio at New York’s Palladium, where Lopez and Warhol were judging a beauty contest. It was there that Antonio suggested that Edwards enroll at Warhol’s new school, The New York Academy of Art. On a scholarship paid for by Andy Warhol’s estate, Edwards attended the New York Academy of Art from 1988 to 1990. Often vilified for his use of celebrity, called “Shock Artist” by the New York Post and “prankish and frolicsome” by the New York Times, while winning such dubious honors as Sports Illustrated’s “This Week’s Sign of The Apocalypse,” The Art Newspaper’s Bartlebooth award, as well as Sporting News calling for “the artist’s head under a Guillotine,” Edwards’s artwork has also been seen as prophetic and consistent in its ability to humanize social issues that the media and public have trouble addressing.

Untitled Assemblage #S3-23 , by John Wolfe, Mixed Media Abstract Sculpture
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
John Wolfe's Mixed Media Abstract Sculpture, "Untitled Assemblage #S 3-23" brings together wood, steel, ceramic elements, and acrylic paint. The warm colors of the wood and painted ceramic elements soften the feel of the rectilinear arrangement. The shallow depth of the work gives the sculpture a kind of "drawing" quality while the shadows it casts lend a more expansive feel. The heavy, dark wood base anchors all aspects of the work in place. This work is the perfect tabletop piece. It's large enough to command attention, but also subtle in its open framework arrangement. John Wolfe was born in Vernon...
