Installation at the Yellow Bird Gallery 2004-2005
Sculpture portraits stripped to essence are Mr Grausman's forte. Concentrating on volume and form, eliminating inconsequential details, he models faces of expressive vitality by emphasizing their structure and contours. His surfaces are integral to the work: metal, pewter, aluminum, and stainless steel in gray tones that add to the distinction of these streamlined but powerful presences, which translate well into monumental form.

Mr Grausman's drawings of nudes, eloquent essays in pure line, are, like his sculptures, distinctive for what they leave out.
