Davey Moore in Sculpture

I recently received the last issue of Islas Magazine, a Cuban Negro themed publication that brings an interesting interview of Elio Ruiz, a U. S. based Cuban filmmaker with Ultiminio Ramos, whose unforgettable career was always haunted by other boxers deaths and destiny.

Wandering the boxweb I have found these pictures of the sculpted image of Davey Moore, the guy who Ramos didn't kill.

Geraldine Moore, the widow of boxing champion Davey Moore, stares up at the bigger-than-life sculpture of her late husband after it was unveiled at the studio of artist Mike Major Monday. Major is in the background, at left, talking to Moore's family.

"I conceive the practice of art as a matter of ethics and a way to give a positive meaning to my own vision of the world, with all due modesty. The mediums, drawing first, painting, sculpture, are gifts given to us by nature, which we use in our everyday work, by paying tribute to the greatness of everything living on our planet, created for the love of itself and must be celebrated."

French, born 1945.

Boxing Gloves Painting (Painting Boxing Gloves)

Dundas West's iconic boxing gloves at Bloor Street Boxing & Fitness, Toronto, Canada, are solid red again. Harsh winters and UV rays had taken it's toll. Chipping paint and uneven colors had plagued the gloves for a number of years.

The Main Event

Mary Crittenden

Acrylic on Illustration Board 16.5" x 12"

Mary began painting before she was seven years old. Her father brought home enamel paints from work. Although these didn’t work too well, she did the best she could with the tools and talent she had to work with. Mary was hooked. She continued painting through high school where her teachers encouraged her to try for art scholarships; And so it went.
Now, as a middle-aged adult, Mary Crittenden is still painting. The enamel was replaced long ago with acrylics and oils, and the subjects in her paintings are so life-like they almost look like soft photographs. In fact, her paintings have a three dimensional appearance because of her expertise in handling depth perception. Mary has always enjoyed old photographs for the feelings they evoke of a more leisurely era. “I try to make them come alive,” she explains. Her flair for telling visual tales, her sense of design, and her love of color has led to Mary’s current focus: using bright, almost impressionistic oils to make historical snapshots as fresh as if they had been photographed today.

Danza-Boxeo (The Medina Method of Cuban Salsa Inspired by Boxing Fundamentals)

Yolaidis y Medina

Medina y Yolaidis

Dancing inspired by boxing may seem an odd combination, but not so in Cuba where boxing is huge and dancing the national pastime. Young Cuban boxers are trained to be high powered dancers because the most effective winning strategy in boxing is mastering dance moves and body rhythm to avoid being punched by your opponent.

Geodanis Medina is a gifted Cuban boxer who after years of thought, experimentation, and hard work, has integrated his two great passions, boxing and salsa. Drawing from his extensive training in boxing, he has developed a unique system of dance that has it's own philosophy, technique, style, and beauty.

Medina's core philosophy: "Dance from the ground up".

Joe Louis Knocked Down by Max Schmeling, 1938, etching, 3 5/8 in x 5 7/8 in.

Max Schmeling, who was the Heavyweight boxing champion of Europe was a 10-1 underdog when he faced Joe Louis on the night of June 22, 1938 at Yankee Stadium. The odds were also 4-1 that Schmeling would not be on his feet by the seventh round, and 2-1 that Louis would win by a knockout. To the surprise of the world Schmeling knocked Louis out in the twelfth round. Louis had also been down in the 4th round, which this amazing etching visually describes. Two years later Louis avenged the defeat, knocking out Schmeling early in the first round at the same venue. Schmeling remained friendly with Louis for the rest of his life, giving him money, and even paying for his funeral.
Purdy was a PWA muralist and cartographer.
