Terrence Higgins Trust, The Timed Auction 2021
18 FEBRUARY 2021 - 11 MARCH 2021Notes
Antonio Lopez Reche was born in Barcelona and studied at the University of Barcelona and Saint Martins School of Art under the Erasmus program. His work is held in private and public collections and his bronze sculptures have been exhibited internationally and across the UK.
While mythology and folk tales might be his central theme, the essence of Lopez Reche’s bronzes is the act of modelling and creating forms that convey movement and strength. Their modelling reflects a clear interest in capturing the rawness of materials such as clay, wax or plaster into bronze as well as the expressive energy of tool marks and direct modelling.
Mr Hare has been cast by the foundry using the ancient technique of lost wax casting. Once in his South East London studio these are finished and
patinated.
This lot is kindly donated by Antonio Lopez Reche.
