Stone Artists
March 2010, List from stone carver Steve Shaheen
Friends and Colleagues of Stone Sculpture,
I have been asked recently to pass along the names of sculptors to look at who are working in stone. I have therefore started a small list of historical and contemporary artists who might be of interest. The collection is very limited--just some names that first come to mind. Once you start exploring, you will find many persons in the field, both past and present.
Sculptors to Check Out
This list is by no means definitive, nor does it necessarily represent work whose aesthetic I champion: it is simply an organic assemblage of various sculptors I know of who worked or are working in stone. Techniques, materials, aesthetics, and levels of involvement (direct authorship vs. artisan assitance) all vary. - Steve Shaheen
