Gary Donavan Berg

After painting for fifteen years, Gary has come back to his first love, sculpture. He will be presenting his latest series, "Base elements," at the Red & Gold Gallery in October. These grounded sculptures made from raw cement and burnt wood offer an interesting combination of material and form evoking both a visceral reaction and a calming effect. These current pieces are at the cusp of progression that Gary has made working in this format--having achieved close to the maximum size that one person can handle.
