“Balanced” Sculpture by Scott Gentry

Offered by: MOGUL

Description
Scott has created a beautiful example of complimentary contrasts with this latest sculpture. "Balanced" displays one side that is painstakingly hand-polished while the other remains in a natural, rough state. Adding to the beauty of this sculpture, Scott carved it from Calacatta marble, one of the most sought after of the Italian marbles.
The marble first brought to us by Michelangelo, Calacatta Marble is a luxury stone that is exceptional in appearance. Its rarity results from the fact that it is only available from one quarry in the world, located in Carrara, Italy, where its production is limited and well-controlled, which lend to the rarity, and expense, of this high-end stone. Calacatta Marble is distinctive with its thick, bold veining and soothing white background. In fact, the whiter the background, the more expensive and desirable this marble gets.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Scott Gentry is a stone and bronze sculptor currently based in the United States. At an early age, Scott discovered stone sculpting and soon traveled to Pietrasanta, Italy, to learn more about this ancient form of art. While in Italy, he was able to study in the same setting as many renowned sculptors had before him and experience La Dolce Vita.

As he learned about the varieties of stone available and how each would carve differently from the next, a passion for the art quickly ensued and has since led to a lifelong passion for creating sculpture. Scott's continuous search for knowledge has also taken him to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and Ventura, California. It was in San Miguel de Allende, Scott discovered the process of bronze wax casting and expanded into creating bronze sculptures. He returns to Pietrasanta as often as possible to work in the studio and gain inspiration from the Italian countryside, the marble laden Apuan Alps and nearby Ligurian Sea.

Scott’s clientele has grown over the years to include celebrities in Los Angeles/Beverly Hills, California, as well as private collectors throughout the United States and Australia. He continues to create gorgeous works of art in stone and bronze and hopes to share his passion and creativity across the globe.
