The Face of MODERN STONE SCULPTURE

Scot Buccina South Florida Stone Sculptor

Scot Buccina was born of Tuscan-Calabrese parents, who fostered his intense passion for the arts. Buccina studied art at the University of Maine, followed by completion of his Master’s in Studio Sculpture and Art History at Florida State University. Believing that his passion for stone derives from his Tuscan artistic roots, the home of stone masters Michelangelo and Donatello, he has maintained that inspiration for stone sculpture for nearly 40 years.

Buccina located his business inWest Palm Beach in 1985, where he began working alongside a master sculptor from NewYork’s SOHO art district in the ‘70s, who later operated a successful sculpture school near the Armory Art Center. A master sculptor in his own right, Buccina’s talents have passed to his many students, who have won awards for their sculptures. In 1996, Buccina moved his studio to Hobe Sound, where he continues his South Florida sculpture business.

Having traveled the country extensively exhibiting his works in galleries and juried art shows, receiving numerous awards and acclaim, his works exist in client collections all over the world. Commercial clients also sell his works, including Tommy Bahama Home Stores in Newport Beach and Texas. Sculptures range in size from tabletop and pedestal pieces to large, freestanding pieces in marble, alabaster, wood with stone, and his favorite medium, translucent yellow calcite. Buccina maintains an ever-changing collection, also commissioning unique designs to client specifications. Buccina also works with interior designers. Buccina’s works are diverse and suitable for home, office or yacht, whether indoors or outside.
