The Growing Sculpture Garden

Watch For New work
New work is constantly being put into the garden to add to your Maui art experience. Bruce Turnbull, Master Sculptor, created this entry with new work made from stone. The "Sunrise" (round carved stone - right foreground) will have a red crystal sphere in the center to reflect the sunlight. The light blue stone (rear center) is Italian blue marble accentuating the Möbius curve in the center while keeping the natural stone on the outside. A beautiful combination of taking what nature gives the artist and leaving it present.

Continue down the path to see the Buddha resting in a very peaceful spot on the trail.  Just around the corner is a magnificent view of Haleakala.All through the garden there are places to pause and contemplate.

This quiet, shaded circle is full of new work by Steve Turnbull. The Parian II sculptures (left front) reflect the shadows beautifullly. You can see that a sculpture need not be large to enhance any garden setting.

Christine at the Opening of "A Celebration of Hawai'i"
Viewpoints Gallery, January 17 to February 12,2008
viewpoints08 peachblok15 christine

This annual exhibit offers a rare opportunity to see works done by several native Hawaiian artists, as well as celebrated local artists. It opened with a traditional hawaiian blessing, a chant and a ti leaf blessing of all the work. Pupus were served with a delicious array of lau lau and haupia. Not only was the chant magical, but also the hula that followed. Don't miss out next year on this annual event.

Christine has three pieces on display. Here she is above with "Generations"

kulia
"Kulia i Ka Nu'u" means "strive to the highest". This piece is available to be cast in bronze for $12,000. The bust is also available in bronze without the skirt for $6,000.

Closeup of "Kulia"

This sculpture is made from ceramic and palm fronds. Christine worked with her dear friend, Makamai, a kumu of hula and hawaiian studies, to learn the art of palm frond sculpting...how to soak and knead the frond in your hand to make it pliable. When you have it at the right position, it will dry that way. The pose is reminiscent of a hula pose, not an exact, but almost as if the dancer is getting ready to start her hula.

 

"Generations", Manzanita wood and ceramic, asking price is $2,500

This is the new sculpture garden trail that is in progress. Eventually we will have it winding through the property and clearly marked, finishing back up at the gallery.
