Description: Sculpture : Porcelain Relief Size : 11.5x16 x1 in | 29x41 x3 cm Edition : From the Edition of 93 out of 950 Bill Mack is the worlds preeminent relief sculptor. The relief form in Mack's case, primarily "alto relief" originated in ancient temple friezes and marble sepulchers, and is virtually nonexistent in galleries anywhere. To excel in this exacting form, in which foreshortening poses daunting technical challenges, Mack is also a master draftsman. Each relief derives from painstaking studies of the foreshortened figure -- a classic skill that is a major factor in to the quality of his reliefs. Enthusiastic, stylish, and original, the mustachioed Mack has a distinctive flair about him. From his rare art form to the mysterious red rose that he wears on his lapel each day, Mack is an unusual man and artist. He enjoys one of the most successful and high profile careers in contemporary American art. "Mack's Art elicits an immediate emotional response," notes one critic, "a moment in time is stopped, a familiar face is revealed, the grace of a body in motion is captured. If viewers become more than observers, they become participants in the drama unfold in before their eyes."
