Sculpture- Bob Turan is an award winning sculptor working in direct metal, concrete and stone.
He uses several processes of cutting and welding, gas or arc as the work requires.
The materials may be mild steel, often painted, Corten steel which is designed to weather to a rich patina, or stainless steel which is polished bright. These metals often combine with found objects, natural stone or special concrete and terrazzo castings to tell the story. The work is often geometric, exploring the
angles and facets of multi-sided solids, and looks into the inner layers and the hearts of these shapes.

Artist’s Statement:

With a cinematic eye and a welder’s arc, I bring light, motion and mass to my work.
I use steel, stone and concrete as the building blocks to frame objects and images, and to direct or reflect light. I contrast weathered and polished, dark and light, mass and space.
I often work in four dimensions, allowing time to show the kinetic aspects of a piece. Coming from a filmmaking background, I feel that motion is critical, whether it be the intrinsic movement within the work, or the movement the observer brings to the work.

Although my earlier sculpture used other metal joining and soldering techniques, now the processes of welding have allowed my dreams to soar. I enjoy the fabrication as much as the design, and usually refine the concept during construction. In the end, I feel there is some of “Vulcan’s* power” in my work.
*Vulcan - the Roman god of fire and metalworking (not to be confused with any Startrek characters or species).
