Dialogue in wood
The museum says (this is edited):
“Mark Del Guidice lives in Concord, Mass., and maintains a studio in Stow, Mass. He is a long-time participant in the American Studio Furniture Movement, creating one-of-a-kind artworks that meld the expressive potential of contemporary sculpture, the artisanal craft of woodworking, and the functionality of furniture. His aesthetic is grounded in the juxtaposition of diverse woods and surface treatments, a dialogue between two- and three-dimensional elements, and curved forms inspired by nature. All of his artworks include carved surface elements – a system of hieroglyphs that are both symbolically personal, and evocative for viewers.’’
