David Middlebrook
David Middlebrook is a master of materials, beginning as a ceramic artist and evolving to a broad range of stone, marble and bronze works weighing from 50 lbs. to 50 tons. He has established himself as a specialist in large-scale, site-specific work. Middlebrook is an Associate Director of Fine Arts at San Jose State University in California’s Silicon Valley and maintains a studio in Los Gatos, California. His visiting artist positions have taken him to the northern tip of Australia and to South Africa. He credits these experiences with the primitive aesthetic influence in his work. Middlebrook sustains a professional relationship with a studio in Pietrasanta, Italy, where he finds that the availability of virtually every stone in the world, combined with a thousand years of tradition and the combined experience of a variety of artists, provide an invaluable asset.
