About the Item

George is an elegant figurative bronze sculpture by Nando Kallweit. This striking sculpture features a slender, elongated nude female figure, exuding elegance and introspection. The minimalist form of the bronze captures an ethereal quality. The figure stands on a solid, square base, emphasizing its delicate proportions. The absence of detailed facial features adds intrigue, inviting viewers to interpret its quiet presence. Its elongated limbs and subtle curves create a sense of grace and movement, defying the static nature of sculpture. The work's simplicity highlights the Kallweit's skill in evoking deep emotion through minimalistic design. The sculpture commands attention with its verticality and abstraction, offering a stunning focal point that transforms any space with its understated power and sophistication. George is often paired with Kathy. Nando carves the marque for the body from a piece of oak using a small chain saw.  The marque is then used to make the cavity for a sand and clay cast bronze.  The figure therefore retains the cut marks and wood grain of the original carving and give it a very organic feel. Nando Kallweit is a German sculptor working in bronze and oak. Kallweit carves the original piece from a piece of oak using a chainsaw. The oak marque is then used to create a cavity in clay and sand into which the bronze is poured. The resultant bronze is particularly organic and tactile. The wood grain is apparent, as are the cut marks where the chainsaw has bitten into the wood. As a young boy, Kallweit was inspired by the beauty and antiquity of a bust of Nefertiti housed in the Egyptian Museum of Berlin. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, his new-found freedoms allowed him to travel to Egypt and develop his belief in the basic strength and pride inherent in inhumanity. His sculptures seek to emphasize this through elongated forms and upright postures. He reduces the figures to simple gestures and movements creating sculptures with a wonderful interplay between the archaic and the modern; between art and design.
