About the Item
Title: "The New 'D' Sculpture"
Inspired by the dynamic and influential "Alphabet Series" of the contemporary Constructivist sculptor, Fletcher Benton, my work, titled "The New 'D' Sculpture," is a bold reimagining of a symbol for the city of Detroit. Rooted in the Constructivist genre, this piece draws inspiration from Benton's emphasis on geometric forms.
The sculpture, crafted from cut and welded steel, exemplifies the tenets of Constructivism with its distinct linear planes that convey both strength and longevity. The deliberate use of industrial colors, red and black, enhances the visual impact, making a statement of bold and uncompromising form. These color choices not only pay homage to Detroit's industrial heritage but also infuse the sculpture with a sense of vigor and resilience.
The craftsmanship of "The New 'D' Sculpture" stands as a testament to my skill in metalworking. Every cut, weld, and finish is executed with precision and care, resulting in a piece that not only pays homage to Constructivist principles but also reflects my dedication to the art of metal sculpture. Through this work, I strive to capture the essence of Detroit's strength, resilience, and industrial history, presenting it in a form that is both visually compelling and enduring.

Mark Beltchenko Studio
Mark Beltchenko is a Detroit area sculptor that is highly skilled in multiple media. Equally comfortable working in stone, steel, bronze, wood and precious metals his work serves as a meditation on the good and bad in our current lives: the environment, political hypocrisy, positive growth, greed and human narcissism. Much of his work weaves layers upon another in stories through 3 dimensional pictographs. His imagery communicates in ways that are both primitive and profound; both sweeping and diminutive. Beltchenko is not a loud or verbose man but his work screams at us with dire urgency. That is not to say his work is obvious, rather, it is not. It requires effort. One must spend time with the work and breathe into it. You may not immediately recognize the discourse; however allow yourself to linger and as one lingers the layers begin to unfold and reveal its meticulous detail and dialogue. It affects and changes you. Mark has shown in museums and galleries; executed commissions for colleges, churches, corporations, casinos, and municipalities. In addition to producing his own bodies of work he has participated in visiting artist programs and workshops. Mark also creates one of a kind precious metal jewelry for which he has won numerous design awards.
