Marianne Vitale

Marianne Vitale is an American artist known for her large-scale sculptures made from reclaimed and salvaged industrial materials, particularly railroad ties and timber. Her work explores themes of American history, landscape, mythology, and cultural decay, often evoking structures of the frontier and the built environment. Vitale has exhibited widely in the United States and internationally, and her raw, imposing works engage with ideas of labor, failure, and the passage of time.
