AmericalEclectic: The Intersection of Mastery
Our Vision
At AmericalEclectic.com, we believe that the most compelling collections are built on a dialogue between opposites. Our gallery is a dedicated reliquary for legacy-grade figurative and contemporary art, curated for those who find harmony in the eclectic.
We don’t just sell objects; we facilitate the acquisition of cultural artifacts—pieces that serve as the “Heroic” anchors of a life well-lived.
The Three Pillars of Our Collection
Every work at AmericalEclectic is selected based on three non-negotiable criteria: Anatomical Integrity, Narrative Depth, and Unrivaled Provenance.
-
The Icons of Power: We are anchored by the “Heroic” vision of Richard MacDonald. His pursuit of the perfect human form in motion provides the classical foundation of our gallery, offering a timeless tribute to the triumph of the human spirit.
-
Industrial Surrealism: We embrace the whimsical complexity of Nano Lopez. His “Nanimalism” and figurative masterworks—including rare Artist Proofs and extinct editions like Man Balance—represent the modern evolution of bronze, where nature and machinery exist in vibrant, polychrome harmony.
-
The Storytellers: From the meticulous “Lost Wax” wildlife of André Harvey to the mystical stone lithography of Michael Parkes, we feature artists who spent decades perfecting their medium.
A Note from the Founder
“My journey into the world of fine art began with a single observation: that true mastery is unmistakable. Whether it is the raw, athletic power of a Richard MacDonald bronze or the intricate, mechanical soul of a Nano Lopez figure, certain works possess a ‘gravitational pull’ that transforms a room.
I founded AmericalEclectic to share that pull with other collectors. My own collection is anchored by MacDonald’s ‘Heroic’ works—pieces that refuse to be ignored. It is that same standard of ‘unignorable excellence’ that I look for in every piece we offer. We don’t just look for art that fits a space; we look for art that defines it.”
