Meet Artist Bud Egger

Meet Artist Bud Egger

This month in the Gallery we have Men’s Art: The Hero’s Journey. The winner of the Juror’s choice award for the show is a Bronze entitled “Poet’s Lament” by artist Bud Egger.

Sculpture by artist Bud Egger

Bud is a professional sculptor with 30 years of experience. Bud is known for his exquisite marble, Bronze, Cast Marble, and Multi-Media sculpture.

Here are a few words from Ed about his art:
“It is said that my work has a strong narrative. Each and every piece does reveal a story and each story has an infinite degree of source. I am a voracious reader, a student of mankind’s mythologies, and an eternal seeker of knowledge. I believe that there is the other worldly, the imaginative, and the spiritual. The Arts dwell within this ephemeral realm, without definition, enhancing our lives, simply because they exist. Questions about my work: wings, exaggeration musculature, unusual surface and form treatment. I sculpt for myself. It is my passion. Not all of you will understand, to those of you who do, I say, Enjoy.”

Bud is a traditional stone carver with classic techniques. He sculpts each piece by hand using only chisel and stone. His work demonstrates exquisite craftsmanship and detail. Whether he is working in bronze, cast marble, marble or multi-media, each piece requires a multi process of procedures before completion.

Please stop by the Columbia Art Gallery sometime this month Wed-Sunday 11-5pm to see the full Hero’s Journey exhibition.
