Forrest Myers, "Segment of the "Language"

Forrest Myers, "Segment of the "Language" 14 x 24 x 1 inches Aluminum Artist Bio: Born in Long Beach, CA (b.1941) and raised in California, Forrest “Frosty” Myers moved east in 1962 and quickly became part of New York’s vibrant artistic community. He was a founding member of the Park Place Gallery, where he exhibited large-scale sculptures with colleagues Mark di Suvero and Robert Grosvenor, among others. During the 1960s, he created metal sculptures of complex, abstract, geometric construction, heavily influenced by Hard-Edged Abstraction. Artist Statement: I have developed a grouping of approximately 26 characters over the past fifty years that I call “the language.” I use these shapes over several different disciplines. The piece that I am donating is part of this language. It is composed of four aluminum panels and although the original was drawn in the 1970’s this wall piece was completed in 2025.
