Bruce Beasley

Knight's Gambit

Cast Bronze, 1991

25" x 32 " x 24 " From Bruce's website: "Nature arrives at this perfect point between change and stillness, between form that is evolving and form that is complete; nature does this most easily and with rare mistakes. Nature remains the ideal guide and the great resource; without it, there is no warmth, no heart and I insist that my work have both." I loved the movie Wall-E. This reminds me of that little trash compacter with a big heart. It's cold, hard bronze but it radiates warmth. It could be swaying in the breeze or swinging on a tire swing, the work looks that fluid and in motion. It's restrained. It is perfect.
