Description:

Jimmie Nord (American, 20th c.), "Inshired", 2014, steel, wood, cast aluminum, wire, paint and stone, unsigned, h. 111 in., w. 57 in., d. 26 in. Provenance: Aquired from the artist; Estate of Nadine Carter Russell (1943-2022), Baton Rouge, LA. Exh.: "Playschool", Glassell Gallery, Baton Rouge, LA, Apr. 22-27, 2014. Note: Jimmie Nord is a contemporary sculptor from a small town in Northern California. Though he now works out of his home studio in Bonney Lake, Washington, Nord spent time in Baton Rouge earning his MFA from Louisiana State University in 2014. His sculptures are inspired by the “magic” of hidden infrastructure in construction. His work in the U.S. Forest Service also informs his sculptures. The monumental piece offered here was included in the artist’s thesis exhibition, Playschool, at Glassell Gallery in Baton Rouge. The crossbeams and materials evoke imagery of construction while the arrangement and primary colors add a sense of nostalgia for an elementary school playground.
