About the Item
"Once Upon a Time with Bear" is a playful, interactive sculpture set with three miniature bronzes and natural stones placed on a cherry wood base. The storyteller figure (Griot) sits perched on one rock, and a rapt child with his cat listens from a second rock. A large bear, also appearing to be listening, sits directly on the wood base.
Edition of 5. Each edition number will be slightly different because of the unique rocks that hold the storyteller and the boy with cat. Edition number 2 of 5 has now sold and is pictured in the first six photos shown. Number 1 of 5 is shown in the last two images, and has since sold. Edition number 3 is available for casting now.
The given dimensions are for the overall ensemble on the finished wood base.
Wood base: 3/8"H x 7"W x 4-1/4"D.
Bear: 2 1/4"H x 1-5/8"W x 1-3/4"D.

Brooklyn, New York artist Noa Bornstein describes herself as “a draw-er”. Many of her sculptures begin as a quick drawing or impression - from memory, from dreams, or from life itself. “Watching a man walking down the street, I take out my little pad and am compelled to capture something of his gait, the rhythm, shape, whatever attracts my attention,” says Bornstein.
Figurative sculptor and painter Noa Bornstein was born in San Rafael, California, and grew up mostly in Los Angeles. She has lived and worked in New York City since 1986. Bornstein holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from The University of California at Santa Cruz. Her sculptures have been shown in many indoor and outdoor venues, including at the Palm Beach Institute of Contemporary Art in Florida, the Rotunda Gallery in Brooklyn, and Grounds for Sculpture, Toad Hall Gallery in New Jersey. Public installations include Lakeland, Florida, sponsored by the Polk Museum of Art, TriBeCa Park in Manhattan, as well as several parks in New Jersey and Baltimore. In 2009, the Walter Randel Gallery in New York City exhibited Bornstein’s sculptures as part of a group show integrated with ancient sculptures from around the world. Her work has been featured in Art in America and in Artnews, among many other publications.
