ABOUT THE JOHN FRAME TOURS: Since 2006, California sculptor John Frame has been working toward the creation of a stop-motion animated drama featuring an eclectic cast of fully articulated characters composed of found materials and meticulously carved wood. These figures build upon the distinctive, often theatrical stationary sculptures Frame has created throughout his career, but the works on view in “Three Fragments of a Lost Tale: Photography, Sculpture & Film Works by John Frame” interact in a short film, created in collaboration with Johnny Coffen, and are set in a curious and complex world. The exhibition includes sculptural figures, multiple stage settings, still photographs, and animated film vignettes.

Frame has held a longstanding interest in The Huntington’s rich holdings of works by the English artist William Blake (1757–1827), reflected in a concurrent installation “Born to Endless Night: Paintings, Drawings, & Prints by William Blake Selected by John Frame” in the Works on Paper room of the Huntington Art Gallery .

Frame’s first museum exhibition since an acclaimed 2005 presentation at the Long Beach Museum of Art, “Three Fragments of a Lost Tale” is accompanied by an illustrated catalog featuring an essay by art critic David Pagel.

Steen Art Study is proud and honored to again conduct an art education program with this distinguished artist having had 12 sessions with him during the years of 1992 through 2006.
