Gallery of timeless beauty

Through her artwork, Amy Goldman has captured the unique appearance of heirloom fruits and vegetables.  Rare Forms is a lasting testament to the timeless beauty of these endangered varieties.

Inspired by nature and the harvest of heirloom treasures from her legendary garden, Amy Goldman has created a line of stunning bronze sculptures. Each piece captures the singular and timeless beauty of an ancient gourd, squash, or melon. Goldman has bestowed on this line of limited-edition bronzes the apt name of Rare Forms.
