AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Limited edition sculpture in a series of 25 bronze and corten steel pieces created 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 made within a maximum of 2 days, the sculpture is delivered well packaged.
Pancho Porto (Santiago de Compostela, 1988), began his training in the specialty of artistic cabinetmaking at the Antonio Failde center in Ourense. At this school he had his first contact with disciplines such as carving, drawing or modeling, and, most importantly, with workshop work.
Later he enrolled in the Mestre Mateo School of Arts and Crafts in Santiago de Compostela, where he studied what in the future would 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 continued his training personally and researched other materials such as bronze or resins and their multiple uses and finishes, leaning towards the use of bronze and steel as the final material for his works.
After this initial training phase, he decided to install his studio on the banks of the Sarela river, very close to the place 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 communicating and narrating his story. Since then, this has been the usual tone of his works, thus adding complexity and background to the whole body of his work, with themes that touch both the social sphere and his personal experiences.
