Phoenix kinetic sculpture edition coming to an end
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 at 12:37PM I made the last production run of Phoenix in January 2009. I introduced Phoenix in September of 2003 so it has had a very long and popular run. The patterning wheel is based on a much older piece of mine called Dragon.
I shipped most of these last Phoenix sculptures to various galleries. If you would to see one in person please contact me and we can determine if there is a gallery near you that has one. It's always a bit sad to retire a favorite old design. That's why I do my designs in strictly limited editions, to force myself to continue designing and exploring. In my next post I'll be discussing some interesting new designs, Fiesta and Quandary that I've just added to my recently updated web site.

The production run may be ending, however, Phoenix continues to run at my home. It is one of two that I own, the second being Meander. I cherish them both.
PS: I'd welcome showing Phoenix to anyone looking to purchase one.

I'm pleased you are still enjoying Meander and Phoenix. Meander was the first piece I made with this type of mechanism. With its development I entered a new world of long running (for me) sculptures.
Thanks for visiting and commenting Curt.
