Greensboro sculptor Jim Gallucci takes his work to Venice exhibition

Sculptor Jim Gallucci

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci poses late last month at his Greensboro studio with the third incarnation of his Golden Oak Leaf Arch sculpture, the one headed to Venice for an exhibition to be held along with the 2018 Venice Biennale of Architecture from May to November**.**

Gallucci’s signature on the sculpture. “I had to design a piece that says something about me and the work I’ve always done,” he says.

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci at his studio with the piece he will send to an exhibition in Venice, Italy, on Friday, Feb. 23, 2018, in Greensboro, N.C. It is the third piece that he created for Venice and the one he opted to send.

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci’s first Golden Oak Leaf Arch. Over three weeks, Gallucci, Josie Vogler and other staff cut, bent and welded aluminum into a 600-pound piece, 10½ feet tall, to span a 12-foot walkway. Because of freight costs, Gallucci decided to build another lighter version.

Gallucci inspects welds on the top section of his second sculpture, which he made to lessen the overall weight of the piece. When the one-way cost of shipping it to Venice was estimated at $26,000, Gallucci opted to make a slightly smaller one to reduce shipping expenses.

Sculptor Jim Gallucci

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci poses late last month at his Greensboro studio with the third incarnation of his Golden Oak Leaf Arch sculpture, the one headed to Venice for an exhibition to be held along with the 2018 Venice Biennale of Architecture from May to November**.**

Gallucci’s signature on the sculpture. “I had to design a piece that says something about me and the work I’ve always done,” he says.

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci at his studio with the piece he will send to an exhibition in Venice, Italy, on Friday, Feb. 23, 2018, in Greensboro, N.C.

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci at his studio with the piece he will send to an exhibition in Venice, Italy, on Friday, Feb. 23, 2018, in Greensboro, N.C. It is the third piece that he created for Venice and the one he opted to send.

Metal sculptor Jim Gallucci’s first Golden Oak Leaf Arch. Over three weeks, Gallucci, Josie Vogler and other staff cut, bent and welded aluminum into a 600-pound piece, 10½ feet tall, to span a 12-foot walkway. Because of freight costs, Gallucci decided to build another lighter version.

Gallucci inspects welds on the top section of his second sculpture, which he made to lessen the overall weight of the piece. When the one-way cost of shipping it to Venice was estimated at $26,000, Gallucci opted to make a slightly smaller one to reduce shipping expenses.
