Acrylic Sculpture

• Vasa Mihich - Vasa Studios - Vasa is an academically trained painter and a senior Professor of Design at the University of California, Los Angeles. Born in Yugoslavia, Vasa has lived in Los Angeles since his arrival in the United States in 1960. His studio, designed to accommodate the technology required for his work, is located in the heart of Los Angeles. Here he creates and makes all of his art.  An innovative sculptor, Vasa is best known for his luminous prism sculptures. For more than thirty years, his work has continuously evolved and changed as he has explored the absorption and reflection of pure light. Based on simple Euclidean shapes - the triangle, square, circle and rectangle, - his laminated acrylic forms are composed of layered filters of colored planes that vary according to the source and placement of ambient light. See: Vasa Notes
  
  
• Dell Kabir A long time resident of Hawaii, Dell has been working with acrylic sculpture for over 25 years in all phases of acrylic design and fabrication. He began his research in this media through art history, with his primary inspiration coming from Bruce Beasley's large abstract cast sculptures in the 1960's. Dell's hand carved acrylic sculptures with color laminations have won many awards in island art shows.

• Jim Greene - Artwork - The secret of Greene's success as an artist comes from his success in custom auto work. Since he was 15 years old and growing up in Kansas City, Greene developed a secret combination of base colors and lacquers that give a rich, ethereal glow to paintings and Porsches alike.
  
  
• A Time of Visions - Larry Abbott Interviews - Melanie Printup Hope Anyway, for My spirit speaks, I wrote different things. The video is actually documenting the creative process. The quotes that came from one audio speaker, next to the one plexiglass sculpture of the landscape, was from the Iroquois Great Law of Peace. Out of the other speaker were different things that I wrote dealing with technology, being a mother, trying to serve many roles in society, and how at times it can be overwhelming, trying to make a balance among everything. One plexisculpture is a landscape and the other is a cityscape, showing the contradiction between the two.
  
  
• Valerie Nielsen-Mendez - “What interests me presently in my work with sculptural mediums is the relationship of materials to form, and materials to each other. The heavy, dense and immutable composition of steel or stone is in opposition to the transparent fragility of glass or plexiglass. Similarly, the inherent strength of the trapezoid shape dominates the circle's suggestion of buoyancy and movement. The play of size, placement of forms, and choice of materials are the components that make each work's equation complex or simple to solve.
