About Ken Yackel
His work is unique and not run of the mill, not just a rendition or copy of a sports picture. He has an incredible talent and skill for composition and is good with his palette, I love how he shows form & movement. Each piece has rhythm, movement but it's not your typical "in your face" sports paintings. He's obviously very sensitive and it shows in his work, it is rare with sports for the artist to have such insight in that world b/c most sports artists are just fans and not professional athletes. He sees so much more than the normal things that everyone sees, he sees much deeper into the sport and it shows in his use of bold lines, intricate patterns and how he shows movements and shadows in his paintings and the detail in his sculpture .............
“If you’re a true fine artist you’re supposed to tell your point of view through your eyes about the world. What’s my world? The fastest game on earth, Ice Hockey.” Ken Yackel, Jr. is a fine artist and second generation hockey player. A South Saint Paul, Minnesota native, he majored in fine art while playing on the University of Minnesota’s 1976 NCAA Championship team. He subsequently spent time in several professional leagues. When he departed pro hockey, he enrolled at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. Through his sculpture, paintings, and drawings. Yackel personalizes the game of hockey by reflecting the emotions and experiences of the player. His abstract sculptures reflect his love of the sport. By using strong, bold colors, his paintings express the energetic movement found in the game. Yackel’s notable works include the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame, Tribute to John Mariucci sculpture, The Bob Johnson Player of the Year Award, and the Gene Aldrich Trophy. Having 7 one man shows, with “Frozen Moments”, at the Golden Gate Ice Arena in Redwood City, California, garnered critical acclaim.
