FIBARK's featured artist

Michael Buckley (born January 23, 1973) is an American artist, best known for his large-scale public art installations. His work draws upon ideas of time and the temporary nature of existence. Hanging Boulder, with its 20-foot-tall steel tripod, allowed the viewer to spin an 8-ton hanging boulder without mechanical assistance. Inspired by the Land Art movement of the 1960s, his work is often a response to the environment where it is sited. 

 

 

I am for art that happens under bridges.

I am for art that makes you ask, is this even art? 

I am for art that asks, is this right, what is happening?

I am for art made by cowboys.

I am for art that has too much fun.

I am for art that brings people together. 

I am for art that makes you want to make art.
