About the Item
This impressive contemporary sculpture was hand-carved from black marble by Viktor Mitic. Highly regarded for his unique visual style, the Canadian artist favours abstract form. Halcyon exhibits Mitic’s signature flowing lines and imaginative shape. The beautifully veined marble is quarried from the regions of northern Spain in Markina, Basque Country. Its highly polished surface naturally reflects light.
“Halcyon is a massive sculpture meticulously carved from black marble, evoking the serenity and timelessness of the mythic Halcyon days.” Viktor Mitic
Viktor Mitic was born in Serbia, emigrated to Canada and earned a BFA from the University of Toronto in 1995 with studies in art history at Sheridan College. He has exhibited his post-Pop inspired paintings, prints and colourful abstract sculptures at numerous international venues, notable among them Muramatsu Gallery in Tokyo, The Armory Show in NYC, Art Chicago and Toronto. His work is held in corporate, private, and public collections.

Viktor Mitic
Painter Viktor Mitic is best known for his use of firearms as an artistic tool. Depictions of celebrities and historical figures riddled with bullet holes provocatively reflect on the senselessness of gun violence.
Mitic was born in Belgrade, then part of Yugoslavia and now the capital of Serbia. While in compulsory military service, Mitic came to see the gun as a potential medium for his art. He later moved to Canada, where he graduated with his BFA in 1995 from the University of Toronto. That year, he completed a portrait of Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, which he presented in a formal unveiling at the prime minister’s office in Ottawa.
Mitic’s fame grew in 2008 after he displayed his most controversial piece, Hole Jesus, at Trias Gallery in Toronto. It drew widespread media attention. Over the following years, he made more works featuring images of well-known people, shot up with a .22 caliber pistol.
Mitic has participated in exhibitions around the world, including a 2008 show at the Muramatsu Gallery in Tokyo. In 2010, he presented his acclaimed Art or War collection at Gallery Moos in Toronto.
Although he has produced art in other media — including sculptures — his bullet hole paintings remain in demand with collectors. Mitic continues to create art that intrigues and confounds critics and viewers.

Bewitched - tall, modern, abstract, contemporary, aluminum outdoor sculpture
By Stephane Langlois
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Two organic shapes rise from the ground and reach for the sky in this finely crafted aluminum sculpture by Stephane Langlois. The abstract forms evoke the idea of two humans engaged in a dance, perhaps two birds, moving in response to one another. These sculptures are lively in the sunlight, moody in the evening light. They work well in sunny climates, and are also outstanding against the winter snow and light.
Individual dimensions: pictured here, the left piece is 91 x 20 x 18 inches. The right piece is 91 x 19 x 21 inches.
Stephane Langlois completed a bachelor's degree in psychology, in 2002, and a D.E.C in sculpture at the Maison des métiers d'art in Quebec City...

Face with goggle-eyed, Abstract Sculpture, Suitable for Outdoors
By Bertalan Andrasfalvy
Located in Boston, MA
Artist Commentary:
Half face with one goggling eye. The turnable eye has pupil on both side, light can go through. When the eye turned sideway, it becomes cat eye. Our eye movements are the most talkative part of our face.
Keywords: Abstract, geometric, white, black, kinetic, stone
Artist Biography:
Born in Hungary, Andrasfalvy is 50, with swift dark eyes, a chiseled jaw, and a casually athletic frame that stretch, well over six feet. He exudes a quiet restlessness. He holds an M.D., a Ph.D., and two curricula vitae—one that lists eleven peer-reviewed publications on neuronal physiology, and another that describes dozens of sculptures, several of them commissioned and many gifts. The pivot between art and science started early. When Andrasfalvy was 10 years old, his father gave him a woodcarving set. By age 20, he had completed his first stone sculpture—and was on the path to medical school. Ever since, he’s spent weekends sculpting leftover granite or marble salvaged...
