Patrick Amiot Sculptures

Once a year or so I make it out to this neck of the woods, and always take the opportunity to check out Amiot’s work. He also sells calendars with photos of his work, of which I have hanging on my wall.-Adam

Patrick Amiot Sculpture Art on Florence Avenue in Sebastopol

posted by Scott Beale on Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

 Back in June on my way to Foo Camp in Sebastopol, I came across one of the eclectic sculptures created by urban folk artist Patrick Amiot (see my previous write-up on Patrick Amiot). I had heard that many of his sculptures could be found on Florence Avenue, the street where he has his home studio with his wife and fellow artist Brigitte Laurent.

Recently Lori and I were visiting the Russian River area and while there we drove down to Sebastopol and went on a little photo safari along Florence Avenue to check out all of Patrick’s wonderful art. Almost every other one of his neighbor’s houses have a unique Patrick Amiot sculpture in their front lawn. It’s really quite an amazing sight, walking through this neighborhood with so much public art.

Here’s my gallery of Patrick Amiot sculpture art on Florence Avenue.

In July KQED did a profile of Patrick Amiot for their show Spark.
