Kenneth Capps: early sculpture 1969 – 1976

Originally inspired in the late 1960s by the expressionistic works of David Smith, the minimalist intent of Donald Judd, and the embracing of industrial materials by his peers, Mark Di Suvero and Richard Serra. Kenneth Capps created objects that use friction and gravity to support his weighty, sculptural elements. These astutely composed works, with reductive sensibilities, excite the viewer with feelings of danger and tension.

David Allan Peters: untitled 2011

David Allan Peters crafts painstaking creations that, though definitively paintings, have as much in common with sculpture as they do with his chosen medium.
