Mother and Child -miniature figurative bronze by New York artist Noa Bornstein
By Noa Bornstein
Located in Glen Ellen, CA
This lovely small bronze in a warm honey brown patina is a depiction of a mother enveloping her child, inspired by a scene sculptor Noa Bornstein witnessed at a train station. The optional wooden base (as shown on the second image) is included. Listed dimensions include the wooden base. This humanistic, figurative sculpture is ideal for a desk or table-top, coffee table, or shelf. Edition 4 of 4. Noa Bornstein describes herself as “a draw-er”. Many of her sculptures begin as a quick drawing or impression - from memory, from dreams, or from life itself. “Watching a man walking down the street, I take out my little pad and am compelled to capture something of his gait, the rhythm, shape, whatever attracts my attention,” says Bornstein. Figurative sculptor and painter Noa Bornstein was born in San Rafael, California, and grew up mostly in Los Angeles. She has lived and worked in New York City since 1986. Bornstein holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from The University of California at Santa Cruz.

Why Fight When You Can Play? 2 Pairs of interactive miniature bronze figures
By Noa Bornstein
Located in Glen Ellen, CA
"Why Fight When you Can Play?" is a playful interactive figurative sculpture sold in pairs. A pair consists of a standing and a crouching figure. Serious “toys”, these miniature bronzes are the perfect activity for a group of adults and children. To balance, a level and stable surface must be used. Bornstein has seen many people of all ages entranced with playing her sculptures. She states: “the ‘players’ must have patience and skill to balance the sculptures—and I’m continually surprised by new ‘poses’ that adults and children invent. Even one pair has multiple balancing possibilities.” $475—one pair; $950--two pairs; $1350—3 pairs; $1650—4 pairs. Please inquire about shipping multiple pairs. Patinas: —choice of brown, black, or green patina. You can mix patinas in each pair. Dimensions given are for one pair stacked vertically. One standing figure is 3" tall and one crouching figure is 2” tall. This is an unlimited edition—no edition number. Brooklyn, New York artist Noa Bornstein describes herself as “a draw-er”. Many of her sculptures begin as a quick drawing or impression - from memory, from dreams, or from life itself. “Watching a man walking down the street, I take out my little pad and am compelled to capture something of his gait, the rhythm, shape, whatever attracts my attention,” says Bornstein.
