Javier Marin Impressive Figurative Bronze Sculpture (Signed)

About the Item

Mounted on black granite base, this expressive and beautiful bust in verdigris bronze can be appreciated from all angles. The art of Javier Marin offers a singular vision of the human spirit. If only one word in the English language described the work of artist Javier Marin, it would be audacious. His larger-than-life sculptures are bold, daring, brave, fearless, original, and without restriction or attachment. When you take in his art with your eyes, you see it with your body, feel it in your soul and you keep turning it over and over in your mind. Javier Marin (Mexican, b. 1962), a world-famous Mexican artist was born in 1962 in Uruapan, Michoacán. He got his education through Academy of San Carlos and the National Autonomous University of Mexico. During his 30-year career, he had 270 exhibitions in Canada, Mexico, the United States and a few of South American countries. Most of his exhibitions were held in Mexico City’s museums, such as Museum of Modern Art and National Print Museum; and also the US museums, such as Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. In 2008, he was awarded with the Prize of the Third International Beijing Biennial in Beijing, China. Marín’s artworks demonstrate remarkable knowledge of the human form garnered from years of drawing directly from the figure.
