About the Item

Corjan Nodelijk is a composer and a professional storyteller. The quirky and surreal creatures - mostly people or animals - seem curious. But it is ultimately up to the viewer to have a firmly rooted image in his head that the visual artist born in Dordrecht in 1962 knows how to disrupt properly. Occasionally animal individuals, who can never be found in an animal encyclopedia, are composed of two or more species: stretched, lengthened, widened, shortened. Or what else the artist has with his materials in his inspired spirit and creative hands. Yet his work is not surreal. The reality of this is always beyond dispute. This is indisputable, because it is necessary to create full of wisdom and poetry. The artist's hand described their anatomy. So the sculptures defy every natural law. The figurines that are picturesque on one side, decorative on the other, so beautiful aesthetic, because only the art of nature itself is made. The human figures of Nodelijk are also from time to time mysterious, oriental-looking messengers of cosmic worlds with their own dress code. The works are never moving on erratic paths, rather contemplative, introverted and always to be found in the best place: in the here and now!The artist uses the most used materials. Perfection does not mention perfection: 'perfection is boring' according to Corjan Nodelijk.

Don Quixote - Resin and Metal Blue Sculpture of Horseman
By Angelo Canevari
Located in New York, NY
Angelo Canevari’s Don Quixote is a 38 x 44 inch mix media sculpture. It is made of metal, resin, blue automotive paint, and cardboard. Angelo Canevari's work is often inspired by classical themes and myths. In this sculpture, he revisited with a modern interpretation the famous character of Don Quixote of La Mancha, in the Spanish novel by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. Almost Baroque in it's curvilinear shape rendered by the interlacing blue lines, the horseman and the horse emanates a superb emotional tension that culminates in the horse's red eye and the horseman's red head. This sculpture is part of a very limited number of works that the artist created at the end of his life. It has been featured in a book written by renowned writer Andrea Camilleri. Angelo Canevari is an Italian sculptor who comes from a long lineage of artists active in Rome since the 17th century. He has been commissioned several works by the Vatican including the Bronze Doors of the Cathedral of Belluno and the Vatican Coins.
