Acquired directly from the artist

Developed by the artist, Andrew Levitas, metalwork photography is a process involving the transfer of photographs into transparencies that are in turn melted onto hand detailed metal sheets. The result is a work that combines the imagery of a photograph with the presence of a sculpture. While these works are printed as editions, they function, in fact, as unique objects since each print differs, depending on the level of hand tooling on the metal.
