Paolo Soleri (1919-2013), Arcosanti Bronze Wind Bell Cluster

Arizona, featuring three patinated bronze windbells, each signed with studio glyph with quatrefoil clanger and triangular fin, suspended from central pyramid with suspension rod. 29 1/4 x 5 x 5 in. Private Collection, Ohio Paolo Soleri's wind bells are handcrafted and known for their unique sound and design; produced at Cosanti and Arcosanti, his architectural and urban design projects in Arizona. Soleri, an Italian-born architect, developed the concept of "arcology," blending architecture and ecology, and his bells are a physical manifestation of this philosophy. The bells are made using a lost-styrofoam casting method, where molten bronze is poured into sand molds, and then finished with a patina bath to create unique markings. Originally the proceeds from bell sales supported The Cosanti Foundation, which furthers Soleri's work in urban design and ecological principles. Good estate condition; natural verdigris patina in the making.
