Around 1967 Noland began experimenting with horizontal bands of color of varying widths and arrangements. This was a departure from the \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003easymmetrical, circular, and irregularly shaped canvases that propelled his reputation in the 1960's. While a number of artists, including Guido Molinari and Gene Davis, similarly embraced stripes, Noland's approach was noticeably more restless and unpredictable as he embraced color interaction as opposed to expressions that approached Op art or minimalism. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eNoland is under-appreciated as a colorist. His brave color combinations remain remarkably vital and appealing half a century after their creation.

He is arguably one of the most successful creative forces hired by Florence Knoll in the 1950's. His metal wire chairs are true icons of 20th century design and remain in production today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis sculptural work was revered alongside his design career, gaining him notable artist grants, exhibitions, and an impressive number of commissions for public works including his striking \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/listart.mit.edu\/art-artists\/altarpiece-mit-chapel-1955\"\u003ealtar piece in the MIT Chapel\u003c\/a\u003e. His first European sculptural exhibition was at the US Pavilion of the 1958 Brussels World's Fair, alongside Alexander Calder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBertoia created his Sonambient (his own coined and registered term) works with aesthetic, sonic, and kinetic properties in mind. The word is a combination of \"sound\" and \"ambient,\" reflecting the notion that these works fill their surrounding environments with harmonic, resonant sound. Although the wire chairs have been extraordinarily successful, these tonal, sounding sculptures are most often associated with his artistic legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBertoia first started prototyping his sounding sculptures in the early 1960s. A variety of metals were used, the most common being beryllium copper, which is known for having a range of tonal and pigment variation. He would set these metal rods in rows or grids into flat, metal bases, sometimes fitting them with cylindrical tops, emulating cattails and enhancing the swaying of the forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eEach sounding sculpture is unique visually, dynamically, and sonically. Bertoia created a large number of these works, ranging from a few inches to twenty feet tall. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween 1968-1969, Bertoia selected about 100 tonal sculptures to store in his barn, using the space as a recording studio and concert hall for close friends and fortunate visitors. With the help of his audiophile brother, Bertoia recorded 11 studio albums of the Sonambient pieces being activated. The albums were \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/sonambient.com\/\"\u003ere-issued\u003c\/a\u003e in 2016 by Important Records.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBertoia's contribution to sound-art is commendable, his ability to combine aesthetic, kinetic, and auditory considerations remarkable. This piece would be a wonderful addition to any Mid-Century Modern collection, acting not only as a joy to look at, but as a work that is meant to be activated, offering a unique opportunity to slow down, listen, and ponder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQuestions about this piece? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"mailto:info@caviar20.com\"\u003eContact us\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e or call \u003ca href=\"tel:+1.416.704.1720\"\u003e+1.416.704.1720\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVisit our Toronto gallery on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caviar20.com\/pages\/contact\" title=\"Contact information for Caviar20, Toronto fine art gallery\"\u003eThursdays or by appointment\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Untitled\" (Cattail Sonambient Sculpture)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeryllium copper rods on brass base\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUSA, c. 1975\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e17.5\"H 9.25\"W 2.75\"D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 1rem;\"\u003eVery good condition.

Here, swathes of paint are emphasized and shadowed by incorporating powder and glitter. By folding diverse elements into his thick impasto-painted canvas, Boxer offers an abstract consideration of pattern, texture, and color.
