Sculptor/ Art Appraiser /Gallery Owner
Company: Neighborhood Gallery Of Boynton Beach
I search: For opportunities for creative people
I offer: Fine art painting, sculpture and jewelry
About: Beau Lieu’s most popular works range in size from two to twelve feet, though his sculpture �Liberty, or Victory Over Communism� stands at over forty feet and weighs more than seven tons. Finished, but for its painting, it stands outside his studio wearing only a coat of primer. Where exactly the idea for this work came from, not even the artist can say. It is certainly abstract — as is most of his work, but not nearly as lyrical. The lion’s share of Beau Lieu’s work, which he opts to paint on primary and secondary colors, often interspersed with stainless steel and polychrome finishes, though fashioned of extremely dense and rigid materials, possess a delicate, even graceful quality.

Although several of his institutional pieces are bronze figurative and are dedication sculptures for medical foundations. His studies in art began in Massachusetts and concluded at Shaftesbury University in London, England with a Masters of Fine Arts degree. In 1980 he moved to Florida and founded Beau Lieu Sculpture Studios in 1984 in Boynton Beach, Florida.

Many of his early sculptures can be found in in the northeast, most of which are located in Massachusetts and the tri-state area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

As a sculptor he has paid special attention to world events and has marked such events with his work. Such as the breakdown of communism in the late 80�s which ended with fall of the Berlin Wall. He created a forty foot steel sculpture called �Victory Over Communism�. A steel sculpture called � Reflections of Desert Storm� is located at the Air National Guard base in Westfield, Massachusetts. As society moved toward spirituality as a means to dealing with social problems, Beau Lieu created a large steel sculpture titled � The Spirit Guide� which is located in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts.

He has immortalized political leaders and famous artists of the past with homages to their significant contributions to their particular fields. Some of these include Marc Chagall, Kandinsky, Picasso, Winston Churchill, Gandhi, and Ronald Regan.

Technique(s): lost wax casting, painted metal sculpture, oil and acrylic paintings
Interests: Public Art / City Spaces
Inspirations: Art is made from dreams, and visions, and things not known, and least of all from things that can be said. It comes from the inside of who you are when you face yourself. It is an inner declaration of purpose; it is a factor which determines an artist identity.
School: Shaftesbury University, London England
CV: Other awards include the Neighborhood Artist Residency Program Cultural Council Grant Recipient 1999; Outstanding Artist and Designers of the 20th Century 2000; Decree of Merit, International Biographical Centre, Cambridge, England 2001; Meritorious Achievement in Art and Education, American Biographical Society 2001; The Mike Ryan Memorial, A Tribute to Veteran Hospital Volunteers, 2002.

Beau Lieu�s most recent commissions are the Boca Raton Community Hospital, Boca Raton , Florida ‘Volunteer Tribute’ dedicated in 1998 and the �Tribute To Volunteers� at the Veterans Hospital in Daytona Beach , Florida in 2002.

In 2001 he was approached by the City of Boynton Beach to organize the selection of an Arts Commission board and the writing of an Art ordinance, guidelines and recommendations to govern that ordinance. He was appointed by the mayor for a three year term as a board member, and now serves as chairman.

Affiliations: He is a twenty year member of the Palm Beach Cultural Council and a civic art leader. He sat on the selection committee for the Veterans Memorial Project and Wilson center memorial, a tribute to Carolyn Simms.
Awards: In 1989, he was the recipient of the Distinguished Florida Artist of the Year Award. He also received a 1990 award for Significant Contribution to the Arts in Education from the National Organization of Young Audiences and in addition received a 1991 Resident Artist Award for his work with high school students by the Palm Beach County School Department.
