"Murene, Moray eel often seen with its head among coral formation waiting to ambush prey. It has two unique set of jaws. One powerful set of jaws with razor sharp teeth that catches the prey and smaller inside jaws that comes out from the throat and pulls the pray back inside, just like in "Alien" movie. Murene has very good sense of smell and is able to get into narrow tunnels in the coral formations. It partners-up with Coral Grouper fish on hunting by flushing the prey out from niches."        ------Andrzej Szymczyk Artist Biography: Andrzej graduated with an MA degree in Fine Arts in the faculty of Sculpture from The Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow in 2012. He also studied at The Newcastle University at the department of Fine Art from 2010 till 2011. He moved to London in December 2012 and became a member of the Bow Arts Trust in June 2013. He has exhibited in Poland, Germany and now the UK. From concept to completion Andrzej’s sculpture is created and finished entirely by Andrzej. He casts his own bronze and applies and finishes his own carefully chosen patinas. He is truly an artist of perfection. “I have practiced Judo since I was 7 and have competed at high international levels. The discipline has a significant impact on every aspect of my personality. The mindset of judo is also the way in which I approach my life. For me it means dealing with problems and tasks in resourceful manners and never settling for anything less than the absolute best. In terms of my sculpture, I require myself to be perfect at every stage along the way to completing a finished piece. These highest standards of perfection are what I strive to live by and are what guide me in my art.” – Andrzej Szymczyk

Pecheur / - Full of anticipation -
Located in Berlin, DE
Adolphe Jean Lavergne (1863-1928), Pecheur, c. 1900. Brown patinated bronze with rectangular cast plinth on a green marble base (3 cm high), total height with hinge 37 cm, width 9 cm, depth 8 cm, weight 2.9 kg, signed “Lavergne” on the plinth. - Base with old drilling and a few oxidized areas, patina occasionally rubbed, somewhat stained in the folds. - Full of anticipation - This bronze is the larger, highly detailed version of the fisherman that made Parisian artist Adolphe Jean Lavergne famous. In preparation for fishing, the boy prepares his rod before heading out to sea. The attachment of the iron ring and the rope behind him suggest a quay wall and a boat moored there. However, the depiction is entirely focused on the actual action of the young fisherman: With equal skill and concentration, he bends a hook to connect it to the fishing line. The contrast with his casual clothing, the loose-fitting trousers, the open shirt with its "wild" folds, and, last but not least, the sun hat boldly perched on his neck, reinforces the impression of the attentive care with which he goes about his work. His gaze makes him appear absorbed, as if he has forgotten the world around him and yet he is visibly filled with anticipation of fishing. GERMAN VERSION Adolphe Jean Lavergne (1863-1928), Pecheur, um 1890.
