Softcover. Burlington VT, BCA Center, 1st, 2012, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 80 page exhibition catalog illustrated in color. SIGNED BY ARTIST on the title page. Text includes the artist's remarks and essays by Courtney Lynch and Jasminr Parsia. Related postcard and brochure laid in. For more than five decades, Stromeyer has created sculptures whose graphic forms, saturated colors, and complex, balanced compositions seem to defy steel's material limits. Despite the weight of their materials and construction--including welded, cold-bent, half-ton steel plates--many of Stromeyer's sculptures play with space and perception; they seem to defy gravity, appearing to float and extend upwards effortlessly in the landscape. Very Good plus.
