Ron Aloni

Israeli, b. 1950

"Untitled"

blown glass and metal wire
signature in wire at bottom.
h. 13", w. 11-1/2", d. 11-1/2"

  • Provenance: Karl Kemp Antiques, New York, New York; Estate of Thomas B. Lemann, New Orleans, Louisiana.

    Reference: Basia Monka, "The Structure in Wires: Sitting Down with Ron Aloni", Jerusalem Post, December 9, 2021.

    Aloni's biomorphic sculptures are created by carefully and painstakingly knotting thin metal rods into a desired shape into which hot glass is then blown, pushing and bulging between the metal netting. The resultant vaguely organic forms are somewhat Brutalist in style and are variously meant to be hung, strung, or mounted.

    Aloni is a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts, Nuremberg and the Slade School of Fine Arts, London. He lives and works in Tel Aviv.
