About the Owner
Richard Benash
Richard Benash, president and owner of RB Scrap Iron & Metal, Inc. is a Yonkers native. He is also a metal sculptor who works with recycled steel. His steel I-Beam sculptures are well known in the city Yonkers and have been featured in galleries and exhibitions throughout the Mid Hudson Valley and New York City. Richard was commissioned by the Westchester Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) to create a series of recycled art sculptures that are part of a larger permanent recycled art exhibition inside the MRF’s Recycling Education Gallery. Other public art commissions include: The steel fence standing 65’L X 8’H for “Planes, Trains & Automobiles Toddler Park” commissioned by Westhab Inc. and the City of Yonkers and the Dr. Seuss Lorax sculpture for the Rye Middle School story garden. Richard Benash’s art is his work. He and his wife, mixed media artist, Shelita Birchett Benash are currently working on a recycled art mural along RB Scrap Iron’s fence line. The recycled art and mosaic mural will serve to beautify the industrial strip along Saw Mill River Road, while also inspiring the community to think about sustainability. Richard remains committed to environmentally beautifying the City of Yonkers through working green and exposing the public to the remarkable process of transforming junk into art.
