About the Item

This bronze “leaning alphabet” sculpture is signed by the artist, who was known by his given name but also went by an assumed name; he called himself Sharbek Almajkov. We acquired this quirky piece from a former gallery owner in the Berkshires who knew Sharbek. He was purportedly from Eastern Europe, though little else is known of his work or his current whereabouts. As such, this charming little mystery is a piece of a puzzle. Bronze shows a beautiful green patinated finish. Signed and dated on underside of base as shown.

Nancy Dwyer "S" Sculpture or Table
Located in Greensboro, NC
"S" Sculpture or table on casters by noted NYC artist Nancy Dwyer. This piece is unsigned, but was purchased from an estate where Nancy lived at some point in her career. It was found in a barn, along with other signed works by her and a sketchbook of some of her pieces. This could be part of a larger work, but is being sold as-found. Nancy Dwyer is an American contemporary artist who uses language as an image in her large-scale, multimedia works. A key figure in the "Pictures Generation," alongside artists like Cindy Sherman, she co-founded the influential Hallwalls in Buffalo, NY, in 1974. Dwyer's work critiques consumer culture and media using single, loaded words ("ego," "envy," "food") transformed into sculptures and paintings. She uses commercial sign...
