Romee Kanis
Vasily- 21st Century Sculpture of a ballet dancer sitting and tidying her shoe

2020

About the Item

This sculpture is made by Dutch Artist Romee Kanis. The North Holland sculptor Romee Kanis prefers to make her bronze sculptures 'after life'. Her statues are now life-size in many municipalities, precisely because of their narrative characte of these sculptures. There is not just any person sitting there, something is happening there. With the human being depicted by her, Kanis shows more than just that human figure. Her handwriting and expressive representations of men, women and animals also often show movement. A movement with sometimes a challenging character or a quiet moment. As with the art painter Adolfo Ramón, Romee Kanis does not necessarily show a "grand" event. A very personal one. As if you are a spectator of a casual and unguarded moment. The images that Romee Kanis made especially for this exhibition show, as we are used to, a graceful form of her oeuvre with a certain feminine approach.

Catch me if you can!- 21st Century Dutch Bronze Sculpture of a Squirrel
By Frans van Straaten
Located in Nuenen, Noord Brabant
This squirrel is made by Dutch Artist Frans van Straaten. Van Straaten should be called an artist of balance always searching for harmony between force and movement in combination with space. Because of the wide range in his art-education he has mastered the art of drawing, painting and sculpting technology. However, the classical plastic art of sculpture and modelling opens up the possibility for him to create his own language of sculpture in answer to his urge for art. Due to this style of sculpting, the preference for bronze is natural. After his study of sculpture at the Academy of Art in Rotterdam (1988), Frans van Straaten creates bronze sculptures in which he unites force and movement. Feeling and Emotion converted into Matter Sculpture is an experience of space combined with the challenge of the three-dimensional. The tension of space and movement are the themes, which Frans expresses in his sculptures. Summary it can be said that the power of life and being, the feeling and emotion by force and movement will be converted into matter. The experience of space is being expressed in the shapes and characters in each of Frans’ sculptures. His sculptures of bulls express explosive power while the horses find their strength in being elegant. Each sculpture recalls this way their own association and serves as a metaphor for a certain emotion. Feelings, which has inspired the artist for each sculpture. Powerful and Elegant Looking at the works of this artist, it becomes very clear that one of his most important sources is his background in art history. The Renaissance period as well as several Italian artists served as inspiration to Frans as a sculpture. For instance the expressions in Leonardo da Vinci’s artworks, and also Giovanni Bologna...
