Here is an excerpt of an interview with Wayne Salge in a recent Southwest Art Magazine article regarding the annual exhibition and his latest work.

Salge "Plough" Bronze Ed of 12
"....Among the show’s three-dimensional offerings are small sculptures by Colorado-based artist Wayne Salge. Salge’s distinctive elongated figures speak of gesture, movement, rhythm, and line, where the essence of the human or animal is pared down into engaging, abstracted form. WALK ON, for example, was inspired by the sight of increasing numbers of people out walking quickly for exercise. Salge, whose name is pronounced sol-ghee, often starts with a quick sketch but then works spontaneously, allowing the process to guide his hands as he creates and connects shapes. “It’s all about lines, following lines up the piece, and sharp angles allow me to do that,” he explains."

Wayne Salge has three new works in the American Art Invitational.
