Charles Huntington (Ojibwe, 1926-2017). Geometric steel sculpture, 1969. Signed, dated, and numbered 1/6 along one of the spokes.
Born in Niagara, Wisconsin, Huntington moved to the Twin Cities as a child. After serving in World War II, he turned to automotive repairs and began creating sculptures out of found automobile parts. Eventually he learned metal casting from renowned Minnesotan artist Paul Granlund. Many of his sculptures are made of steel and are geometric in form, folding in on themselves and creating a sense of balance and reflexivity, connecting with the viewer physically and metaphysically.
Base; height: 3/4 in x width: 12 in x depth: 12 in. Sculpture; height: 10 in x 10 in.
