| Zach Weinberg was first introduced to
ironwork in 1985 while attending the Putney School,
in Putney, Vermont. He immediately embraced the fiery
process of working steel, and established a strong connection
to the medium as an art form. In 1988, he moved to the
Pacific Northwest and began gathering his own welding
equipment and metal working tools. Zach began his career
as an artist, working out of any space he could find,
with materials found in scrap yards. After a couple
of years, he returned to the East Coast and enrolled
at Bard College as a metal sculpture major. His artistic
style flourished as his skills increased.
Upon graduation in 1994, Zach moved to Westminster
West, Vermont. He began building his house and studio
from a derelict barn, now the home of Firecircle Studio.
Over the past 7 years Zachs work has been displayed
in galleries throughout the east coast. He is recognized
as one of the premiere emerging metal artists of the
new millennium. |

As an artist I am given the opportunity to
work in a career without rules and boundaries.
My artwork is purely intuitive, surfacing from
my soul. Although one may find recognizable
forms within my work, most likely they are not
identifiable. I am an abstract expressionist.
I find inspiration in the nature surrounding
me, and interpret my sub-conscious past and
future into forms of beauty. I create fine as
well as functional art. I enjoy creating furniture,
expanding on and going beyond the everyday concepts
of home decor. From a lamp to a 20-foot site
specific sculpture, no project is too big or
too small. |

| Custom pieces for custom places
are my specialty, inside the home and out. Talk
to me. I am easy and fun to work with, and look
forward to your ideas. |
