Description
A contemporary cast paper relief sculpture titled "The Faint" by Frank Gallo. Hand signed in pencil with an annotation of 75/150 on the lower left. An ethereal composition sculpted entirely in white, allowing light and shadow to animate the figure’s gentle curves and delicate features. Gallo’s mastery of the cast paper medium is evident in the subtle detailing and tactile softness, creating an impression of serene intimacy and quiet strength. A pioneer in sculptural realism, Gallo's innovative technique blends traditional form with contemporary minimalism. This artwork exemplifies his signature approach—merging classical beauty with experimental materiality—to produce a piece that is both sculptural and painterly. A compelling example of Gallo's celebrated career in American figurative art. From a private collection. Dimensions: 38"h x 54"w x 3.5"d (framed). In very good condition.
