New City NY -
On a clear crisp winter day, sculptor Edward Walsh
delivered a wonderful work to the offices of New
City based Michael Shilale Architects, LLP.
Walsh has previously exhibited his stainless steel
"Bird Arising" in front of their building on Park
Avenue in New City.
Michael Shilale, AIA is
thrilled with the new piece. Shilale states
that previously his architectural offices became
known as “the building with the beautiful bird.”
Now he hopes visitors and passers-by will appreciate
the size, scale, strength and sinuousness of Seated
Lady.
"We've had a great response
already. One day a group of teens jumped out
of their car just to take a photograph with her."
Shilale recalls.
Edward Walsh, is a Rockland
based artist from Valley Cottage. His client list
includes Merv Griffin, a former empress of Iran and
various corporate headquarters around the country,
as well as local clients like Camp Venture’s
Holocaust Memorial and Pomona Junior High School.
Besides large scale outdoor sculpture work, Walsh
also creates interior sized sculptures, bas reliefs,
kinetic sculptures, and works on paper.
Michael Shilale is an ardent
supporter of arts and enjoys promoting the works of
Hudson Valley artists. He is a member of
Rockland County's Public Art committee called
Art in Public Places and served as that committee's
chair for several years.
Shilale believes good architecture, like
good art, music, literature, etc. can make a
tremendous difference in our lives and our
communities. His firm’s focus on quality design
seeks to enhance the lives of those who live, learn,
work and play in and around his buildings.
