Romee Kanis
Beach Fun- 21st Century Contemporary Bronze Sculpture of a Playing Girl

2020

About the Item

Movement in bronze You can rightly call Romee Kanis an old acquaintance of the gallery, her work was regularly seen at the gallery until a few years ago. We restore this tradition in honor. We met Romee for the first time by chance. She herself stood at a beautiful and well-visited art fair with her own sculptures. It was immediately a nice contact. We see her stylish, almost moving images as a beautiful addition to the collection of sculptures that we regularly exhibit. Romee Kanis models her sculptures in Schermerhorn, on the photo you can see how she is sculpting a portrait, by living model. Her workshop is in St Maartensbrug. Here she makes garden images in large format, her wax models, the molds for the bronze in the casting, and here she finally finishes the casting. Patienting is also done by Romee herself. Eventually the image is mounted on a pedestal by her. By doing everything herself she has been able to carry out her own hand and idea everywhere. That makes her work very personal. During a visit to her studio we can view many images that Romee herself has in her garden or exhibition space. As if we walk around in a candy store, we indicate what we would like to exhibit at the opening exhibition. Gracefully Looking at the images of Romee Kanis I think of a statement by Wim van der Kant about his images. He said that he saw when an image of a woman was made by a woman or by a man. When I see the images of Romee Kanis, I see her female hand. It is not about the ideal image, it is about the graceful movement. The feminine and graceful forms are incorporated in the movements. Nice to recognize that!

By Erwin Meijer
Located in Utrecht, NL
Uil Owl Bronze Sculpture Girl with Owl on Head Wisdom Contemporary In Stock The statues of Erwin Meijer are subtle with a recognizable, personal handwriting. They breathe the atmosphere of a narrative poem, where the reader not only encounters the artist, but also himself. Though the statues are realistic, there is still enough room for interpretation. Do the artist and the viewer see the same story? It doesn’t really matter, because the beauty in his work has a autonome quality. How can we interprete the work in the conscious and unconscious brain? The first will be hit by the clear styled forms and the technical know-how. The second by his favourite theme, nature, the loving images of men and animals, often together in harmony. Very common in his work is the symbolic worth within the story. The viewer experiences an emotion, seeing a human or human presence, funny or vulnerable. You sympathize with the myth and feel the power of the methaphorical meaning. This is confirms we are dealing with a real artist. Erwin Meijer managed very well to give his sculptures a classic universality, timeless, surpassing the boundaries of reality. With a signature beyond countries and cultures. . East and west meet each other in many sculptures, like Europe and the bull...

The figure is seated with crossed legs, the torso is curved upward opening into a corset form with outstretched arms. "The image of a woman always inspires me in both physical and spiritual beauty. In this sculpture, I tried to express the image of a woman with her soul, which has no smell, taste and is not tangible. The contour of the beautiful shimmering body of a woman allows you to feel the presence of the female soul inside."--ArmanH Arman is an Armenian artist represented in several major collections around the world including the Terra Garden in Kikinda (Serbia), Contemporary Hall of the National Museum of Fine Arts (Chisinau, Republic of Moldova), Boyajyan Center for the Arts (Prague, Czech Republic), and at private collections in Europe, Asia and in the USA.
