| 732. A Decorative Wall Mirror by Don Drumm (American, b. 1935)
A modern decorative wall mirror made by Don Drumm. Cast aluminum abstract openwork shapes, approx. 22" x 31", with a 9-1/2" circular mirror inset near the center. Wired for hanging. Don Drumm credits his creative interests to his heritage. The grandson of a blacksmith and the son of a welder/mechanic, Drumm considers himself a third generation metal worker. He has explored the use of machinery and technology as well as all-weathering steel, pewter, cement, and more to create fine art. In 1958, Drumm pioneered the use of cast aluminum as an artistic medium. Born in warren Ohio, in 1935, Don Drumm left two years of pre-med studies at Hiram College to pursue a career in Fine Arts at Kent State University. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Masters degree. Drumms artwork enhances the environments of private homes, public parks, businesses, learning institutions, museums, and city skylines throughout the United States. Corporate commissions have taken his artwork to every continent. Drumms works range in scale from a ten-story cut concrete mural on the Bowling Green State University Library to three inch pewter sculpture, and manifests itself in everything from jewelry to cookware. His design direction is primarily non-objective, although Drumm is renowned for his whimsical sunbursts, fanciful creatures, and mythological figures. 800/1,200 Sold $690.00 back to catalog |
