Sorry they sold out Graham. Not surprised though as they were signed, limited and cheap.

[Stoko]

Went to see the actual piece for the first time last week and it really is a stunning spectacle.

Not street art but interesting for sure: terracota daughters by french sculptor Prune Nourry Last opportunity to see it in zurich until mid-july. Not to be missed

[stvro22]

Incredible. Thanks for posting.

I can't get excited over artists that pay workshops and others to make their ideas for them. Even so the sculptures are about the female babies killed in China which is worthy to bring to peoples attention.

[Mark Perronet]

Oh not this again..it doesn't matter if the artist does not actually make all or any of the artwork..never has..never will. It is the idea that counts and the fact that it exists is because of the artist making it happen.

[rosh]

Is this by Prune Nourry, JR's wife ??

Impressive work, it was exposed at the 104 Space in Paris

[Mark Perronet]

to be fair, Plop, you were simply saying YOU cant get exited about work that hasn't been made by the artist which is fair enough. Reminds me of Field..by anthony gormley I think, those 'figures' were made by schoolchildren.

Went to see one of those Gormley exhibits. London one I think. It was very impressive. And quite moving.

So it's like a souvenir shop shelf in the Far East .......

I saw the field as part of the gateshead art festival many years ago.  It was very moving.  The figures were made by children but the concept, execution and ideas all came from Gormley.  I would happily see it again....and Gormley IMO was the true artist behind it all.

Yes, it is her. JR was also in Zurich for the opening

[Mark Perronet]

...........and Gormley IMO was the true artist behind it all.

Of course he was and in a way the genius was he didn't have to be present when the figures were made, the teacher had instructions about height, eyes etc. or be there when they were installed, again the gallery was left instructions about placement.

Emulating the style and ancient techniques of the Terracotta Warriors, Prune collaborates with local Xi’an artisans specialized in the copies of the terracotta soldiers to create the Terracotta Daughters project.

Prune sculpts 8 life-size Terracotta Daughters modeled after 8 Chinese orphan girls. The clay used in the process is the same one that was dug up over 2,000 years ago for the original warriors. For this project, the artist learns the local copyists’ technique based off of the ancient practice.

Once the 8 original sculptures completed, the craftsmen use the molds interchangeably to create an army of 108 life-size Terracotta Daughters. The faces will then be individually personalized and signed by the craftsmen, as it was done with the ancient soldiers, to make each Terracotta Daughter unique.

Looking to tap into the collective wisdom of the forum and hope it might turn up some help. I am looking to buy an Antony Gormley - Breathing room print, but they appear to be rare as rocking horse shit, does anyone here know where I might be able to pick one up? Done a good few web searches, found a few advertised, but always sold out when I get in touch. Any hints or pointers on finding one would be appreciated

[AoT Framing]

Have been thinking about buying one of these for a while..Please PM if you have one you're looking to sell.

Bonhams on 9th of December

[Feral Things]

I don't normally post about non-urban art on here but I know few other people on here enjoy Antony Gormley's work too and I thought this Matrix sculptures currently on show as part of his 'Second Body' exhibition at Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac in Paris looked fantastic:

[.dappy]

... beautiful ...

[kfroms]

[dashboll]

LAND comprises five life-size standing sculptures by Antony Gormley cast in iron and installed at five Landmark Trust sites across the UK for 12 months from 16 May 2015. The works have been conceived in direct response to each unique location.

1. Saddell Bay, Mull of Kintyre, Argyll and Bute

2. South West Point, Lundy, Bristol Channel, Devon

3. Clavell Tower, Kimmeridge Bay, Dorset

4. Martello Tower, Aldeburgh, Suffolk

5. Lengthsman's Cottage, Lowsonford, Warkwickshire.

Today I took the opportunity to visit one of these sites. The Martello Tower, Aldeburgh, Suffolk which was open to the public. Here are a few pictures. I'm also going to give away one of the little limited edition booklets with details about each of the five sculptures (bottom pic). If you like what you see click the 'I like' button and i'll pick a lucky forum name out in 24 hours time.




















Not sure if the at least one forum member lives close to all of the other four sites but it would be nice to get pictures of those too.
