About the Item
This Sculpture is made by Jos de Wit. It is made of mahogany wood. The pedestal is made of mahogany and maple wood. In the not of the fish there is a piece of mother-of-pearl, just like he uses for building his string instruments. The wood, and al other material he uses for his sculptures he also uses for building instruments. Violins, double bass, guitars, you all can find his own build instruments in his atelier. The way the sculpture is varnished gives the sculpture a shining effect, just like a violin would do. The Artist Jos de Wit works and lives in Eindhoven, the city of Dutch Design. He draws his inspiration from everything in his environment, the fabric expression of objects, but also from bodies of people and animals.

- Wild Horse - 21st Century Contemporary Bronze Sculpture of a HorseBy Frans van StraatenLocated in Nuenen, Noord BrabantFrans van Straaten Wilde Horse VII Bronze on bluestone pedestal H 65 cm W 65 cm D 35 cm Dutch artist Frans van Straaten (1963) should be called an artist of balance always searching for harmony between force and movement in combination with space. Because of the wide range in his art-education he has mastered the art of drawing, painting and sculpting technology. However, the classical plastic art of sculpture and modelling opens up the possibility for him to create his own language of sculpture in answer to his urge for art. Due to this style of sculpting, the preference for bronze is natural. After his study of sculpture at the Academy of Art in Rotterdam (1988), Frans van Straaten creates bronze sculptures in which he unites force and movement. Feeling and Emotion converted into Matter Sculpture is an experience of space combined with the challenge of the three-dimensional. The tension of space and movement are the themes, which Frans expresses in his sculptures. Summary it can be said that the power of life and being, the feeling and emotion by force and movement will be converted into matter. The experience of space is being expressed in the shapes and characters in each of Frans’ sculptures. His sculptures of bulls express explosive power while the horses find their strength in being elegant. Each sculpture recalls this way their own association and serves as a metaphor for a certain emotion. Feelings, which has inspired the artist for each sculpture. Powerful and Elegant Looking at the works of this artist, it becomes very clear that one of his most important sources is his background in art history. The Renaissance period as well as several Italian artists served as inspiration to Frans as a sculpture. For instance the expressions in Leonardo da Vinci’s artworks, and also Giovanni...Category
