About the curator:
My name is Elliot Gaskin. I have a BFA in sculpture and jewelry from the Academy of Art University, San Francisco, California. The jewelry, installations and sculptures I create focus on the simplest parts of old machinery and kinetic objects. Fishing poles, cranes, and pulley systems are my inspiration. I try to create work that challenges the viewer’s perception of modern day mechanical objects. With attention to detail and craft, I create mechanical objects with simple functions, basic parts, and contemporary designs.

to all enthusiasts of kinetic sculptures:
Yesterday I have been into cinema to see Jean-Pierre Jeunets (Delicatessen, Amélie and more) new Film - "micmacs" . I love the poetic and anachronistic imagery of his films and this time the kinetic sculptures from Gilbert Peyre (FR) are worth looking for itself. A really must see for all of us ! :) Here a french video about Peyres work:
What a joy it is to visit this link and see so many wonderfully artistic interpretations of the basic idea of mechainical and kinetic functions. You all are indeed blessed with fertile imaginations and the talented hands to bring it all to life.
