  • Frank Gallo Girl in Sling Chair Drawing
    Jul. 11, 2026

    Frank Gallo Girl in Sling Chair Drawing

    Est: $200 - $300

    Title is Girl in Sling Chair. 7 1/2" by 8 1/2" unframed, 8" by 9" framed. Pen and Ink on Intaglio Paper. Provenance: Hokin Gallery Chicago. Frank Gallo. 1933 Toledo, Ohio - 2019 Urbana, IL. Known for: Mod sculptor-life size female figure. Frank Gallo has worked primarily from the human form. The sculptor was born in Toledo, Ohio in 1933, and from 1960, was professor of sculpture at the University of Illinois. He studied art from 1951 to 1959 at the University of Toledo, Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan and the State University of Iowa. In the late 1950s, he began to use the material polyester resin reinforced with fiberglass, which gives his sculpture a viscous finish. Although he is noted for his studies of women, some of whom are fancifully and colorfully clad, Gallo has also made sculptures of men, including Abraham Lincoln. Often distorting his life-like figures Gallo has commented: "I'm obsessed with the female figure. I get static from some women - you know, women's lib- who say that I capitalize on them. But that's not fair. What I express in these pieces is worship, not exploitation. I'm interested in the beauty of the female figure, and I'm trying to express it, the way I feel it." In Girl on a Couch, one of us polyester resin sculptures in the collection of Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, we see the exaggerated breasts and the soft mounds of the stomach area that are repeated in the soft billowy cushions of the couch. The couch itself becomes feminine and is almost as provocative as the woman. Gallo's use of epoxy resin signals a use of new, modern materials and is a fitting medium because it enhances the life-like, tactile quality of the figure and places her directly into the viewer's space. His work is often mildly erotic, with elongated figures that may sit or recline in postures suggesting extremes of boredom or self-involvement. Frank Gallo has also made lithographs, using the same thematic material. Examples of his work are in the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C. and the Los Angeles County Art Museum.

Biography from the Archives of askART: Frank Gallo has worked primarily from the human form. The sculptor was born in Toledo, Ohio in 1933, and from 1960, was professor of sculpture at the University of Illinois. He studied art from 1951 to 1959 at the University of Toledo, Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan and the State University of Iowa. In the late 1950s, he began to use the material polyester resin reinforced with fiberglass, which gives his sculpture a viscous finish. Although he is noted for his studies of women, some of whom are fancifully and colorfully clad, Gallo has also made sculptures of men, including Abraham Lincoln. Often distorting his life-like figures Gallo has commented: "I'm obsessed with the female figure. I get static from some women - you know, women's lib- who say that I capitalize on them. But that's not fair. What I express in these pieces is worship, not exploitation. I'm interested in the beauty of the female figure, and I'm trying to express it, the way I feel it." In Girl on a Couch, one of us polyester resin sculptures in the collection of Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, we see the exaggerated breasts and the soft mounds of the stomach area that are repeated in the soft billowy cushions of the couch.

    Frank Gallo (1933-2019) American, Limited Edition Cast Paper Art

    Est: $300 - $600

    Frank Gallo (1933-2019) American, Limited Edition Cast Paper Art. Titled "Zelda." Depicts a beautiful, sleepy-eyed woman's face in his unique medium. Signed bottom right in pencil. Numbered 37/200 bottom middle in pencil.  Size: 50 x 62 in.  #4426 .  Frank Gallo was born in Toledo, Ohio in 1933. Early on he developed an interest in art, particularly in capturing the human form, studying anatomy on his own time in his early teens. He studied art from 1951 to 1955 at the University of Toledo, then spent two years at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. He received his MFA from the State University of Iowa in 1959, and from 1960 onward was a professor of sculpture at the University of Illinois. While at the State University of Iowa he began to use polyester resin reinforced with fiberglass to give his sculpture a viscous finish. His work was often mildly erotic, with elongated figures that sat or reclined in postures suggesting extremes of boredom or self-involvement. Gallo also made lithographs using the same thematic material, creating unique embossed and raised images that bridge the gap between portrait painting and sculpture. He called this process “cast paper,” and taught his pioneering technique to generations of students. His first major solo exhibition was at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1964, and from then on he taught at his leisure, as he was able to support himself solely on commission. Although he is most well-known for his studies of women, some of whom are fancifully and colorfully clad, Gallo also made sculptures of men, including his own interpretation of President Abraham Lincoln. He was awarded a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship in 1966, a National Academy of Arts and Letters Award for Excellence in 1969, and the National Sculpture Society Annual Prize in 1992. Examples of his work are in the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., the Smithsonian, and the Los Angeles County Art Museum. He died at his home in Urbana, Illinois on March 22nd, 2019.
