Pancho Porto’s hand-signed 2023 sculpture DOGS is made of bronze and Corten steel and is numbered 19 of a limited edition of 25.
Description from the seller
Limited series sculpture of 25 copies in bronze and corten steel by the Spanish sculptor Pancho Porto.
Dynamic sculpture; the dogs are fixed to the plinth with magnets, so they can be positioned in different ways.
The sculpture is hand-signed 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, and 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 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 Trades in Santiago de Compostela, where he studied what would later become his main discipline: sculpture. It is in this school that he already worked with materials that would be fundamental in his work, such as steel or clay. Parallel to this, Porto continued his training personally and researched other materials such as bronze or resins and their multiple uses and finishes, leaning toward the use of bronze and steel as the definitive materials for his works.
After this initial training phase, he decided to set up 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 research into 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 usual tone of his works, endowing the entire body of his work with complexity and background, with themes that touch both social issues and his personal experiences.
