Please meet the artists who are Regier Sculpure.
Dave Regier, whose art background includes photography and classical violin, has a private sculpture design studio in Corpus Christi, Texas. Using standard structural shapes in stainless steel, he elicits images and concepts unique to the individual viewers personal viewpoint.
Stainless steel, an alloy of metals including chromium and nickel, provides an elegant medium that invites touch as well as the visual survey so often associated with traditional metal sculpture. Each sculptural element is carefully fabricated and flawlessly assembled to maintain a sense of precise unity within each piece. Dave combines crisp contemporary design and Old World craftsmanship creating signature pieces unique to the genre.
Dave grew up with steel sculpture, and was apprenticed with his father, Arlie Regier, a master sculptor, who studied under the highly respected sculptor Richard Stankiewicz. Collaborating, Dave and Arlie design and build commissioned pieces for both patrons and corporations. Currently, Daves individual work can be found in galleries located in San Francisco, Santa Fe, and Kansas City. Dave embraces the very technology portrayed in many of his pieces by incorporating computer-assisted design to transform a creative concept into a larger scale sculpture. Pieces range in size and weight from 15 inches to 9 feet and 40 pounds to 550 pounds. Each piece, with its attention to detail, balance, perceived movement and energy invites the patron to experience the elegance of stainless steel in an unexpected celebration of form and personal interpretation.
A sculptor for more than 30 years, Arlie Regier brings his fascination with technology and inventions together with his concern with world events to provide images for stainless steel works of art. Abstract essences of microchip circuit boards, cityscapes, sustainable agriculture and computers are polished to a mirror-like finish and assembled in seamless flowing forms that reflect the world around them. Ranging in size from one to fifteen feet, his pieces have appeared in private and corporate collections in New York, Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia and Miami. Regier exhibits with galleries in Santa Fe, San Francisco and Kansas City. In 1967 Regier studied sculpture design under Richard Stankiewicz and received a Masters Degree in Industrial Education from Colorado State University.
