Walter Furlan Figurative Sculptures

Walter Furlan was born in 1931 in Chioggia, a small town near Venice. He started to work in a furnace called VAMSA very early. He apprenticed from one of the most famous glass masters on the island, Romano Tosi, better known as Mamaracio. Towards the end of the second world war, from 1940–45, he worked in the furnace Gino Cenedese, where he met Alfredo Barbini along with the old masters from Vamsa. During this period, Furlan learned the particular technique called a massello, that is, he learned how to shape a quantity of glass that was not blown and therefore quite difficult to handle. In 1963, he exhibited his works of art in the official Glass Display on Murano Island sponsored by the Venetian Institute for work and later on in the Arts and Crafts Exhibition in Reggio, Calabria. At the beginning of the 70s, Furlan cooperated with Maestro Angelo Seguso and designer Mario Pisoni in the glass factory Seguso Art Glass. The works of Furlan are to be found in museum collections all over the world.

Samburu Herdsman - African Tribe Sculpture in Bronze Verdigris
Located in Pretoria, ZA
My interpretation of a Samburu herdsman stands as a sentinel of tradition, his life a tapestry woven with the threads of pastoral wisdom and the enduring spirit of the African savannah. The Samburu people of Kenya possess a deeply symbiotic relationship with elephants, observing and understanding them in remarkable ways that mirror their own societal structures. They share a common matriarchal social system with elephants, where both Samburu and elephant herds are led by a female elder who holds the knowledge and responsibility for the group's survival. This unique parallel has fostered a profound respect and protection for these majestic creatures within the Samburu culture. Samburu Herdsman, Limited edition of 24, Bronze sculpture on sandstone base in Bronze Verdigris, Height 65 cm including Sandstone base. Bronze sculpture using the lost was method.

Rachid Khimoune French Algerian Arab Art Brut Bronze Sculpture Abstract Figure
Located in Surfside, FL
Rachid Khimoune (Algerian, b. 1953) Les enfants du monde bronze. signed and numbered artist's edition of 4 foundry mark - L. Cappe 7.5 x 4.63 x 2.38 Overall: 8.25 x 4.63 x 2.38 RACHID KHIMOUNE, Algerian-French artist and sculptor. Born in 1953 in Decazeville, France. Lives and works in Paris, France. Rachid Khimoune graduated from the School of Art of Paris in 1974; he initially started to work with painting before choosing sculpture. In 1980 he won the first prize of the Foundation of France. He works in an Art Brut, Naif art style similar to Jean Dubuffet and Enrico Baj. Being the recipient of numerous prestigious awards and an extensive oeuvre, Rachid Khimoune has been exhibiting since 1975 and his work can be found in several museums, and public and private collections. The artist behind the project Rachid Khimoune, has been responsible for a number of major, successful public art installations in France. Most famously, the installation close to the Bibliothèque Nationale (National Library) ‘Les Enfants du Monde’ (The Children of the World). Rachid’s newer works are masks and totems cast in bronze: poetic images forged in a furnace. Rachid uses discarded objects and disused parts of machines, to create new human and animal forms. Here his interest in metal-working and Arab art-African art coincides with the assemblage of found objects; one mask is a collage constituted by a large model of the Eiffel Tower stuck into the end of a trumpet. Another has a jerry-can for a face, and the golden patina and surface-working of the bronze does not dispel the idea which this image creates: of a human mouth drinking oil. Born in France to parents from Algeria, Khimoune embraces the role of the artist as a global citizen, using art as a universal language.
