Jim Buckley - Skulptura pred OŠ Franjo Golob 1984

Jim Buckley (Cork, Irska / Ireland), 1984

Irski kipar je skulpturo zgradil iz dveh temeljnih elementov, ki jih je našel »in situ«: gigantskega obroča in v vertikalo postavljenega stebra iz jeklenih cevi velikega premera, s čimer je dosegel dinamično interakcijo med obema temeljnima koordinatama človeškega dojemanja prostora.

Oba impozantna kosa obdelanega jekla je spel s členasto verigo tako, da celota asociira na otroški vrtiljak.

Lokacija: zelenica pred Osnovno šolo Franja Goloba, Prevalje (material: jeklene cevi velikega premera, industrijski obroč in členasta veriga Železarne Ravne).

The Irish sculptor assembled the work from two fundamental components discovered »in situ«: a gigantic circular hoop and a vertically erected column fabricated from wide-diameter steel tubing, establishing a dynamic visual tension between the two primary axes of human spatial perception.

Connecting both massive pieces of wrought industrial steel with a linked chain, the resulting composition subtly evokes the playful mechanics of a children's carousel.

Location: park area in front of Franjo Golob Primary School, Prevalje (material: large-diameter steel pipes, industrial ring, and heavy-link chain from the Ravne Steelworks).

Jim Buckley (rojen 1957 v Corku, Irska) je ugleden irski kipar in vizualni umetnik. Študiral je kiparstvo na Crawford College of Art and Design v Corku in na National College of Art and Design (NCAD) v Dublinu. Njegovo kiparsko ustvarjanje zaznamujejo industrijski 'najdeni predmeti' (ready-made), težka kovina, kinetični in gravitacijski odnosi ter dialog med industrijsko zgodovino in lokacijsko specifično postavitvijo (site-specific art). Velja za enega vidnih predstavnikov sodobnega irskega kiparstva v javnem prostoru.

1984: Udeleženec mednarodnega kiparskega simpozija Forma Viva na Ravnah na Koroškem (izvedba prostorske jeklene skulpture z verigo ob osnovni šoli na Prevaljah).
Javna naročila in razstave: Številne samostojne in skupinske razstave v Dublinu (Project Arts Centre, Royal Hibernian Academy), Corku ter drugod po Irskem in v tujini; avtor pomembnih javnih skulptur na Irskem.

Jim Buckley (born 1957 in Cork, Ireland) is an established Irish sculptor and visual artist. He studied sculpture at the Crawford College of Art and Design in Cork and at the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Dublin. Buckley's practice is characterized by the use of reclaimed industrial ready-mades, heavy metals, suspended equilibrium, and the interplay between tectonic gravity and site-specific narrative. He remains an influential voice within modern and contemporary Irish public sculpture.

1984: Participant in the International Sculptors Symposium Forma Viva in Ravne na Koroškem (creation of the carousel-evoking industrial steel and chain sculpture in Prevalje).
Public Commissions & Exhibitions: Regular participant in major Irish visual arts exhibitions at the Project Arts Centre, Dublin, and Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA), alongside significant public commissions across Ireland.
Collections: Carinthian Gallery of Fine Arts / Forma Viva open-air collection (Slovenia), The Arts Council of Ireland, Crawford Art Gallery Collection (Cork).
