"Fractional Crane"


Artist: John E. Fronzcak

The painting of his crane sculpture was “a completely new and unique” experience for artist John Fronczak.  Prior to this project, Fronczak’s experience with painting three-dimensional forms was confined to “furniture, walls, and trim.”  The crane sculpture was complicated, made up of contours which twisted, turned, and pulled away from each other.  John envisioned a colorful interplay of shapes, in a variety of sizes, and appearing to occupy different positions of space relative to each other.  He was hoping to diminish somewhat the three-dimensional form of the crane sculpture by causing viewers to focus more on the colorful, broken-up surface.
