58TH BIENNALE OF ART VENICE 2019


I am very honored to have been invited by a Venetian Foundation to exhibit my new sculpture The Transfiguration in Venice during the 58th Biennale of Art in 2019. My monumental statue will be suspended 6 feet above the ground by cables attached to the magnificent ceiling of a 15th century Palazzo. This year the Foundation is excepting 500 000 visitors during a period of 6 months. I could have not imagined a better place for the world premiere of my Transfiguration. We are working with an architect to have the installation floats above the crowd like if we were to witness a real Transfiguration. As said William Blake ''Imagination is the real and eternal world of which this vegetable universe is but a faint shadow''.
