David Gerstein
"Cosmopolis", 3D Hand-painted Metal Wall Sculpture

About the Item

"Cosmopolis" is a hand painted cut aluminum 3D metal wall sculpture by David Gerstein, an Israeli painter and sculptor. Edition of 150, signed and numbered. Born in 1944 in Jerusalem, Israel, Gerstein studied art after his military service, first at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem and then at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He is a figurative artist who developed a skillful technique for dynamic three-dimensional sculpture. Gerstein's works are a narrative in nature and explore his environment, life, and experience, capturing his insight into the world. His works reflect the innocence of childhood, viewing the world with an amused non-critical gaze. There is also a subtle self-irony expressing the reality of contemporary life. Elements of the surreal, abstract, and conceptual permeate Gerstein's pieces. Combining metal sculpture and painting, his colorful works exude movement, depth, and humor.

  • 18th Century New England Cartographer's Office - Kupjack Studios Miniature Room
    By Henry "Hank" Kupjack
    Located in Chicago, IL
    Cartography, the study and practice of making and using maps, was at the cutting edge in the 18th-century, helping to shape and define a world rapidly coming into focus. Over the course of the century, exploration and colonization expanded the scope of the known world, especially in the Pacific and the Americas. Advances in geography enabled cartographers to map these new discoveries with increasing accuracy. The days of conjecture and myth in cartography were fast coming to an end. Here, the Kupjack Studios has captured this discipline with exacting details. From the smallest of tools, to the rolls of maps and maps in progress displayed on the desk, the world of miniatures comes to life and brings us into a bygone era.
