SCULPTORS
Bret Price
Since 1979, Bret Price has been building heating chambers around large pieces of steel, applying concentrated, intense heat, then manipulating the material to create a sense of softness. When the heat is removed, these illusions of flexibility are frozen, and on one level, the sculpture becomes a documentation of those forces used in the process. Educated at Pomona College in Claremont, CA, Otis Art Institute in LA, Price took his MFA from the California Institute of Arts in Valencia, CA. He has exhibited in distinguished galleries from New York to Hawaii and his strong, powerful work can be found in such noted collections as the Dayton Art Institute in OH, the Laguna Beach Museum of Art in CA and the Toyota Corporation in Chicago, IL. He maintains studios in Southern California for the smaller work and in Ohio for his large pieces.
