About The Artist

William Paul Gaetjens was born in Long Beach, CA, in 1946, to a family with a long tradition of working in metal. An early interest in art led to a creative mastery of the medium, with studies at the California College of Arts and Crafts and The DeYoung Museum School. In the 1970's, he worked as an iron worker on the Alaskan Pipeline. This real world experience influences his art today.

His metal sculptures reflect his work ethic as well as his nomadic past, with each piece in a series building on to the next, mapping a new uncharted territory. These three-dimensional forms are deliberately raw and rhythmic, echoing ancient form and primitive language. As individual works of art, each piece serves as a blueprint that can only be fully appreciated when subjectively filtered through one's own experience, intelligence and imagination.

Progressions is an ongoing retrospective of Mr. Gaetjens’ extensive body of work highlighting signature pieces that represent new directions in the artist's oeuvre. Each work is one-of-a-kind and available exclusively through Point.B Studio. Many of the smaller pieces are incorporated into larger works. Please inquire about current availability. See also the newer series continually under development. These explore a broad range of media recently introduced into the artist's repertoire.

An avid reader and art history maven, you can often find him at the town's public library engrossed in science fiction, a good murder mystery, or conducting research for his next work.
