This mixed media maquette was made by Roger Brown in 1992 in preparation for a lobby sculpture for Playboy. Roger Brown (1941-1997), was an American painter, and associated with the Chicago Imagists movement. Take a close look and you can see his classic silhouettes in the yellow windows drawn with graphite.
The mount and vitrine were designed to provide a minimal backdrop for the bold maquette.
A streamlined, custom white mount with internal armature were fabricated to secure the piece. A UV filtering acrylic vitrine was fabricated to protect the sculpture from exposure dust and ultra-violet rays while allowing for display.
