David Unger

Art Brokerage: David Unger American Artist: David Unger's passion for sculpting began when he was a youngster, although he put his talents aside to pursue a career as an industrial manufacturer for 30 years. But being a successful business person was not enough. While on vacation in Arizona 17 years ago, Unger decided that the Catalina Mountains would provide a peaceful setting, in the shadow of Finger Rock, to allow him to be the sculptor he always wanted to be. He built a studio where he works at a feverish pace to make reality from an imagination filled with endless interpretations of the human form. After Unger is satisfied with the sculpture in clay, it is cast in bronze; a process that uses the lost wax method of ancient times. His bronzes are finally finished with a verdi patina, which reflects what would happen to bronze if it aged naturally. Each piece is part of a limited edition, never exceeding 12, and is presented to his patrons with certificates of authenticity. Listings wanted.
