Gerald Stoner Sculptures
Gerald Stoner showed his artwork at South End Art Hop Outdoor Sculpture event in Burlington on September 9th and 10th. In his review Out and About, posted in Seven Days newspaper, Marc Awodey wrote:
The trio of pieces making up “Circus Series #7” by Gerald Stoner, installed in front of Lake Champlain Chocolates, seems to defy gravity. Composed of welded, weathered steel, each stands about nine feet tall. Stoner’s compositions gracefully balance geometric shapes, with cut beams perched on thinner forms and designs ground into the rusty surfaces. Each component is capped with a 4-foot-diameter ring. Artists’ titles don’t always illuminate what’s going on in a given piece, but Stoner’s reference to the circus seems apropos for these tall, jumbled abstractions.
