Nando Kallweit
Fleur – Charlotte by Nando Kallweit. Elegant bronze figurative sculpture

2020

About the Item

Fleur – Charlotte is an elegant figurative bronze sculpture by Nando Kallweit. Inspired by the the legend of the phoenix, this female figure has graceful wings instead of arms. The piece, and its dual name, alludes to the strength and rebirth that is possible when we overcome a challenging period in our lives. Tempered by fire we have the capacity to emerge stronger and more resillent. Modelled on modern youthful postures but with a nod to the importance of heritage through the stylised Egyptian-influenced head. Nando carves the marque for the body from a piece of oak using a small chain saw. The marque is then used to make the cavity for a sand and clay cast bronze. The figure therefore retains the cut marks and wood grain of the original carving and give it a very organic feel. Fleur – Charlotte is produced in an edition of 50 pieces. Nando hammers his mark into the base as well as stamping the edition number. Dimensions: 30cm x 8cm x 12cm

By Nando Kallweit
Located in Coltishall, GB
Marlene III is a tall, elegant bronze sculpture of a human figure. Nando Kallweit is a German sculptor working in bronze and oak. Kallweit carves the original piece from a piece of oak using a chainsaw. The oak marque is then used to create a cavity in clay and sand into which the bronze is poured. The resultant bronze is particularly organic and tactile. The wood grain is apparent, as are the cut marks where the chainsaw has bitten into the wood. As a young boy, Kallweit was inspired by the beauty and antiquity of a bust of Nefertiti...

Ian Edwards - Surrender - Original Signed Bronze Sculpure
By Ian Edwards
Located in Collonge Bellerive, Geneve, CH
Ian Edwards - Surrender - Original Signed Bronze Sculpure Dimensions: 32 x 60 x 60 cm Edition of 9 Edwards’ practice expresses the power and determination of human endeavour. He draws inspiration from natural forces, with his powerful masculine figures often bearing the surface texture of time enduring landscapes. Edwards uses this external inspiration to explore very internal themes of fortitude and self-discovery. Edwards’ sensitive hand as a sculptor incorporates classical ideas about the sculpting process. In both Self Made Man and Creation of Self, a figure carves himself out of a mass of rock, reminiscent of Michelangelo's idea of seeing a form within a piece of marble and ’setting him free'. This is deeply metaphorical, reflecting timeless themes of purity, effort and self-belief. Poetic concepts such as these run throughout Edwards’ practice, with each piece subtly informed through mythological storytelling, creation beliefs and philosophical thinking. Edwards served a five-year apprenticeship at the world renowned G&H Studios...
