AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Limited edition sculpture series of 25 in bronze and corten steel by the Spanish sculptor Pancho Porto.
The sculpture is delivered signed by hand and numbered, accompanied by its respective certificate of authenticity.
The sculpture is in new condition, shipping is carried out within a maximum of 2 days, the sculpture is delivered perfectly packaged.

Pancho Porto (Santiago de Compostela, 1988), began his training in the specialty of artistic cabinetmaking at the Antonio Failde center in Ourense. In this school he has his first contact with disciplines such as carving, drawing or modeling, and, more importantly, with working in the workshop.
Later he enrolls at the Mestre Mateo School of Arts and Crafts in Santiago de Compostela, where he studies what will later be his main discipline: sculpture. It is in this school where he already works with materials that will be fundamental in his work, such as steel or clay. Parallel, Porto continues his training independently and investigates other materials such as bronze or resins and their multiple uses and finishes, leaning toward the use of bronze and steel as the definitive material for his works.

After this initial training phase, he decides to set up his workshop on the banks of the Sarela river, very close to where he was born. It is here that he begins his particular theoretical and practical investigation of the relationship between the materials used in each work and the message they convey. This leads him to seek new proposals when it comes to communicating and narrating his story. Since then, this has been the prevailing motif of his works, thereby adding complexity and background to the entire body of his work, with themes that touch both the social sphere and his personal experiences.
