Wendy Klemperer
Wendy Klemperer was born in 1958 in Boston, Massachusetts. Raised in Cambridge and Watertown, she was most able to explore her passion for animals and nature during summers spent at her grandmother's country house in New Hampshire. The daughter of two chemists, she grew up with dual interests of art and the biological sciences and received a Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from Harvard University before deciding to pursue art full-time. Klemperer moved to New York City in 1980 and studied at Pratt Institute. In the early 1990s, she started welding and soon was concentrating on larger outdoor sculpture. Scrap yards and construction sites provide the raw material for her linear, gestural sculpture. Klemperer finds most of the forms already bent into the piles of rebar, her process is largely to select and cut, tack-welding the pre-existing curves into sculptural form. Klemperer lives in Brooklyn, New York and Nelson, New Hampshire. She has exhibited her work throughout the United States.

- Babyfoot Anthracite MatLocated in Miami, FLSigned limited edition number 6 of 8. Resin sculpture. Idan Zareski was born in Haifa, Israel, and he has French nationality. Life would take him through many countries, witnessing multiple races and cultures, which are now a fundamental element in his work. His efforts led him to understand that his salvation had always been, literally, at his fingertips. Idan has never attended art school or any anatomy courses. His gift came to him as a need, which he understood he could no longer resist. "I don't plan or organize, I don't draw sketches. My raw emotions serve as the only guide. Ninety percent of my creations are shaped in less than an hour. When I work, I feel in absolute communion with a force greater than myself." Idan shapes his creations originally out of clay, water and fire, to later set them in bronze. He continues to be amazed by the fact that emotions cannot only take shape but be shared without a word in absolute silence and form. Idan Zareski's infamous Bigfoot is a traveler. He spends his time traversing the world to be exhibited. Already shown in Latin America, where he was conceived, and having recently finished his North American journey, he is now on his way to Europe and Asia. His last stop will be in Antarctica, where an acoustic concert will be held in his honor for a select audience of only penguins. It is a call for awareness that raises the essential questions of "who we are, and where is it...Category
