Since establishing himself in North Carolina, Alexander’s work has been exhibited widely including galleries, universities, and museums, with numerous public and private commissions.

His work is included in the collections of Duke University, Saks Fifth Avenue, the R.C. Kessler Collection, former president Bill Clinton, Senator Bob Dole, and many others.

This piece, which appears to be made of embellished clay, is entitled "The AGEAN" and evokes the demise of Aegeus, one of the kings of Athens in Greek mythology who drowned himself when he mistakenly believed his son had died, rather than successfully killed the Minotaur.

The coloration and detail is stunning with a melange of copper and green. In good condition. See less
