Tallix is the famous foundry where every major sculptor in America would cast their works. They also did some interesting 3D projects with painters like Helen Frankenthaler as well. Dick Polich ran the foundry.

This vintage softcover monograph on Helen Frankenthaler's works on paper, written by art historian Karen Wilkin, is warmly inscribed on the title page by the artist to Dick Polich, the Founder of the legendary Tallix Art Foundry and Polich Art Works, in which Helen mentions her desire to continue to do work with Tallix. The provenance is impeccable as it was acquired from the collection of Dick Polich.
