Rubin Peacock Bronzes
Bison
Aylett Art Foundry Richmond, VA
Bronze
2018, commissioned
Museum Quality Bronze Sculptures
Produced through the Lost Wax Casting Process
Featured in museum, corporate and private collections, Rubin Peacock’s bronze sculptures are unique creations cast in his own foundry and hand-finished by him.
These works emerge from a timeless appreciation of form, unity, tension and mysticism. They stand solidly, unshakable in their concentration of energy and purity of craftsmanship.
Emerging from centuries of sculptural tradition in bronze, they are totems very much of today. They pry into the idioms of our time, yet retain the influence and sincerity of their European past. These sculptures merge the architectonic rigidity of geometrical shapes with an organic strength and flowing force of nature.
The Book
“Rubin Peacock: 50 Years of Bronze Sculpture” is an autobiographical account of Peacock’s career as a sculptor, tracing the enduring influences of his Native American ancestry, upbringing in the rural South, and educational experiences abroad. The 202-page, full color book edited by Tom Erhardt and designed by Leni Price, is available or purchase through this site for $39 at the gallery or through VMFA Gift Shop.
