Judith Brown (sculptor)

Source 📝

106:(December 17, 1931 – May 11, 1992) was an American dancer and a sculptor who was drawn to images of the body in motion and its effect on the cloth surrounding it. She welded crushed automobile scrap metal into energetic moving torsos, horses, and flying draperies. "One of the things that made Judy stand out as an artist was her ability to work in many different mediums. Some of this was by choice, and sometimes it was by necessity. Her surroundings often dictated what medium she could work with at any given time. After all, you can't bring you're welding gear with you to Rome." 1246: 353: 999: 363: 1376: 338:; Commissioned to design and execute the Award for the Honorees of the National Board YWCA's First Tribute to Women in International Industry 622: 871: 1381: 1371: 1341: 1386: 1366: 1361: 1295: 498: 299:
