A Note on the Sculpture of Robert Schelling by the Poet Anne Waldman

Robert Schelling makes elemental forces visible in a strong & urgent art. His bronzes are the stuff of smithies-deities, forging mystical expressions to turn the mind, to conquer triviality. This is not fad, but a way to perceive. All his elegant pieces place one in the center of powerful mandalas, tantric strongholds, bastions of energy which are both forts & temples. The sculptures bounce off traditional - primarily Asian sensibilities - but go much further out. These pieces are holy improvisations out of sacred form. These are meditative works of art, reliquaries of imagination, stubborn provocative beauties.
