Israel, circa 1982. Itzik Ben Shalom (b. 1945 - ) gilt bronze figural sculpture of two intertwined abstract figures mounted on a square black base. Signed and numbered, 12/150. Height 19.75", width 3.75", depth 3.75". Itzik Benshalom is a self taught artist who has been working in the "Lost Wax" sculpture technique since 1967. His sculpture deals primarily with the human form in flowing lines and curves. Though his work shows the influence of the European modern art tradition, it has a distinctive flavor of its own in his stark approach to form. Benshalom's work appears in galleries, corporate and private collections throughout the United States, Europe, South America and Australia.
