LACMA and 2 versions of Brancusi "Bird In Space" Sculpture



Artist Jay Rolfe reports the news from LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) that it is receiving a major donation of modern art, a partial and promised gift of 120 works from the collection of Janice and Henri Lazarof. Included are 20 works by Picasso, 3 Cubist paintings by Georges Braque, a number of works by Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky, and sculptures by Henry Moore, Alberto Giacometti, Jean Arp, and Louise Nevelson. Also included are 2 versions of the sculpture"Bird In Space" by Constantin Brancusi. You may recall artist Jay Rolfe's posts on "Bird In Space" by Brancusi on December 2, 3, and 4, 2007. Those posts include a number of photos of the sculptures, so feel free to go to those posts and see them.


Yesterday artist Jay Rolfe finished painting his Ferrari 3-D Shaped Stretched Canvas Paintings. Today artist Jay Rolfe is installing the windshields, the last assembly, on those 3DSSC paintings. Today's photo is from yesterday showing artist Jay Rolfe putting the gloss coat on the painting to make the metal areas look polished.


That's the latest step of artist Jay Rolfe on his Journey From Starving Artist To 21st Century Picasso. You may view some of Jay Rolfe's Unique Artistic Idea, his Hyper Representational 3-D Shaped Stretched Canvas paintings, on his website at http://www.3dssc.com/. Artist Jay Rolfe uses vibrant color, 3-D, recognizable shape, and huge size to reveal beauty, touch emotion in a positive way, and create an Uplifting Conversation Piece.
