Mary Frank at Steven Harvey Fine Art spans key developments in a practice now approaching seven decades, bringing together sculpture, painting, drawing, and ceramics. Trained in dance under Martha Graham and drawing under Max Beckmann, Frank developed a singular visual language in which fragmented figures and archetypal forms emerge from clay and terracotta surfaces that suggest ancient artifacts unearthed. Rooted in personal experience yet resonant with universal meaning, the works articulate grief, longing, transformation, and resilience with an emotional intensity that speaks to antiquity and contemporary figuration alike.
