Our 9/11 Memorial Sculptures celebrate and honor those lost during the events of 9/11 with a positive approach to public art. On this 10th year anniversary, we offer beautiful sculptures which can be created in any size or scale, for any location, both public and private. We have incorporated themes of nature, which is ever changing and is the truest element of beauty, with the iconic, stylized, visual images of the World Trade Center. We have created sculptures that invite the viewer to remember with honor and love those lives lost in the horrific events of 9/11, while at the same time suggest that we can all learn from this tragedy and perhaps take the next step forward, to grow through understanding and work together toward world peace.
As a husband and wife design team whose public sculptures and modern products can be found in this country as well as around the world, we find that combining our two different yet compatible perspectives seems to create a stronger artistic point of view. We take the best of both and together design an ideal artistic solution for our clients.
We are of the theory that public art should be beautiful, uplifting, engaging and thought provoking. There are ways to visually celebrate, honor and memorialize in a way which will invoke a positive feeling from the viewer. To shock for the sake of shocking is not part of our artistic philosophy. We choose to celebrate with beauty.
We use many different materials, but one factor always remains constant; we only use the finest quality materials the budget permits. Some artists scour junk yards for old rusted metal. This is something we do not do. We are proud of our work and strive to reach the level of excellence that will transport that level of pride to our clients as well.
Our sculptures are classic, timeless, elegant and yet very contemporary. They seem to offer a sophisticated approach to public art. Our method of artistic expression appears to have an international and universal appeal, as our sculptures have won competitions around the world. We were the only artists to represent New York State in the Beijing Olympics Landscape Sculpture Competition, winning the prestigious Excellent Works Award. This was the first time in the history of the Olympic Games that art was an official category of competition.
In a hundred years from now, we want our public sculptures to continue to be significant, beautiful, vibrant and remain thought provoking. We imagine that our clients want the same. We have been commissioned by the New State State Department of State and the New York State Department of Transportation to create large scale public art.
We take great pride in presenting our sculptures to the world and in presenting our credentials to you.
Thank you.
