Bret Price
Head Trip
2020
Painted and rusted steel
21.5 x 15 x 4.5 in.
Courtesy of the artist
About Artwork: One of the creative directions I have pursued in the last 30 years involved the heating and bending of various types and sizes of stainless steel and mild steel rings. Sometimes the material was painted or just left raw but in 2020 during the covid shutdown I made 2 works that combined the 2 finishing methods. Head Trip is one of those works.
About Artist: Bret Price is a contemporary sculptor renowned for creating monumental steel artworks. His career began with clay, gradually evolving into large-scale sculptures that can reach 35 feet in height and weigh up to 7.5 tons, exploring the tension between raw materials and natural forces. His works, whether small or massive, aim to evoke a surprising sense of movement and balance. Price's art is featured in prominent collections worldwide, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the Pepsico Collection in New York. Based in Orange County, California, he also works part of the year at a sculpture farm in New Bremen, Ohio, and has served as a lecturer, guest artist, and board member of the Mid-South Sculpture Alliance.
