Need help to ID artist and a bio - Just Aquired This Nice Mid Century Abstract Brutalist Wall Sculpture - Material: Iron Metal and Enamel - Size: approx. 45" inches L x 21" inches W - 3D type stacked design - top has enamel art squares - and the iron metal has gold and copper toning in areas. Dating approx. mid century ( 1960's -70 ). It is signed SANTORA ? as seen in the pictures. Reminds me of a Jere and Higgins mix.

The iron are nails, used for nailing floorboards.
Not my area of expertise but looks familiar.

Knew it looked familiar. Just come across a similar on on the flickriver website, titled Marc Weinstein Wall Sculpture II
Google images " flickriver Marc Weinstein Wall Sculpture II " and you'll see it.
