About the Sculptor:
Sarah Landau-Mintz was born in Paris (1952) where she now lives and works. While working as a lawyer in the early eighties, she started to study drawing, painting and sculpture. She studied several disciplines, including engraving and lithography, under the direction of established artists teaching notably in the Modern Art Museum of Paris, in the Roederer Academy, in Tuscany (Italy), and completed her studies in Aesthetics and Art History at the Institute for Superior Studies in Paris.
In 1990-91 she took on the study of nature “sur le motif” with a series of landscapes, mostly done in pastel. The years 1992-93 marked her first steps towards abstraction: Beginning from an early leaning towards more traditional shapes, she developed a series of nudes in clay, which led her later on to a choice of new materials (iron, brass, steel). Working on the sensitivity of matter, she continues to explore the flexibility of metal and questions the emotions contained in the shape itself, eliciting a deeply personal introspective response from the subject.
