“I want to make sculptures that are organic, alive, that bring
the substance out of matter. Sculptures that talk, like sages,
about the grand meaning of existence, about what is sacred and
eternal in man.”
Nova took your breath away. He was bold, forceful, full of spirit
and good will. He filled the room with his essence. These
qualities no doubt help keep him alive during his harrowing 28
day journey on foot from Communist Romania across
Yugoslavia and on to Italy…crossing two heavily guarded
borders, wounded, almost losing his life, but not his
indomitable spirit.
Once in America, Nova wanted to repay destiny for the gift of
new beginnings in the country of his childhood dreams. This
began an exciting period of artistic activity that spanned four
decades and culminated in a movement called “Integral Art”.
Nova’s Integral Art is a fusion of art, life and nature. It is
expressed in towering abstract sculptures, murals, paintings,
models for post-modern cities and residential habitats with a
small footprint on the earth, leaving breathing room for the
“lungs of the planet” . His elliptical house is one such example.
Finally there are Nova’s philosophical writings, which give us
perhaps the most candid idea of what motivated this unique
artistic force. All this reached full culmination in Nova’s Ark
Project, a sculpture park for the public where 94 acres of
preserved land, treated by Nova as one huge canvas, is
populated with his monumental sculptures set in open fields,
horse pastures, celebration spaces and galleries. Here art, man
and nature are on equal footings, just as Nova believed they
must be.
Nova’s partners of decades, Tundra Wolf and Luna Shanaman,
continue to keep Nova’s dream alive… working to preserve and
expose Nova’s original works while adding new and surprising
sculptures based on Nova’s original designs.
Nova choose the path less traveled in the art realm. He stayed
in his world of Integral Art, fabricating work after work to
express his philosophy and spirit. He worked every day, either
designing or fabricating works for the Sculpture Park. Little
time was left for cultivating gallery relations. Still, there were
exhibits, commissions from collectors, and showings.
