Sea Biscuit made of rebar (reinforcement bar) and stainless steel
Anthony L. Ingoglia sculptures are distinctly different from one another. Most of his work tries to elicit an emotion. Some are abstract, some humorous and some thought provoking, while others try to enable the viewer to see the world in a different way, through a different eye.
Mr. Ingoglia creates his sculptures from such materials as sheet steel, stainless steel or copper. He starts with sheet metal and rods. They are first designed and modeled. Then they are cut, shaped, formed and welded. Each work has its own meaning; the artist has no one theme.
A Northport resident for the past thirty-nine years, he began his metal sculpting in a studio in Fort Salonga, where he was mentored by the renowned sculptor David Haussler. His work has been shown at local libraries, universities and in Northport galleries. Since 2001, he has participated in the annual outdoor sculpture show at Mather Hospital. His work was also on display at the Atlantis Marine Aquarium in a show he curated in 2005. Currently he assists Mr. Haussler in teaching a welding sculpting class. He is an active member in Long Island Professional Sculptors and Supporters (LIPSS). To see more of Anthony Ingoglia’s work please go to web.me.com/anthonyingoglia.
“The Suffolk County legislature is committed to helping keep the cultural arts alive and giving recognition to
our artists,” says Suffolk County Legislator Lynne C. Nowick who spearheaded the new Art in the Alcove
sculpture exhibits at the Legislative building.
