Metal Wall Hangings

If you are looking to add a touch of contemporary style and modern design to your home, then a metal wall hanging could be a great addition for you to consider. These types of wall art sculptures are commonly made by hand, and are completely unique, which make them true works of art. Metal wall art was first introduced in 1950 by Curtis Jere, who was a metal working artist. Many of his designs and pieces still influence artists of today.

These types of wall art are considered to be abstract art. Which means that there are no real images in them, only lines, shapes, colors, textures and designs. This abstract method of art creates beautiful pieces that will capture the attention of all who view them.

Metal wall hangings can consist of one, or many separate pieces. Take the pieces below as examples:

Notice how both of these pieces of wall art share the same abstract design principle.

Aluminum,  stainless steel and copper  are the most commonly used materials when creating this type of art. Their beauty is brought out by the artist through texturing and coloring processes, which involve machining, brushing, sanding and polishing. This is what gives most metal wall hangings a three dimensional appearance that will react to lighting and viewing position.
