The following biography, written and published with permission by Alexis Cairns, was submitted by Jeff Gold, of J. Gold Fine Art.
"George...was a man of eloquent silences. His work breathes with the eloquence of his muteness." (Elaine de Kooning, 1978)
George Spaventa was a thoughtful, somewhat reclusive artist who claimed that the ideas for his sculpture came to him in dreams. He was born in New York City in 1918, where he studied as a teenager at the Leonardo Da Vinci Art Sch (showing 500 of 3650 characters). |
