Sculptor
Biography Ivan Kosta |

Exposição/Exhibition
|
Most of my sculptural creations, especially the monumental ones are sometimes of "minimalistic" appearance, made in simple lines and curves, and are intended to speak to, and complement the surrounding environment and the qualities of the place where they are installed - be it a public park setting or the interior of a public building. Working mostly in metals such as bronze, steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, etc. which left to rust naturally, patined, powdercoated or with whatever surface treatment selected, usually establish a harmonious and lively relationship with the surroundings and provide - in combination with the landscape and the total area - a needed integration with the space and people. Increasingly the medium of choice is stone, wood, masonry and landform art. My works, when monumental in size, tend to be designed to become a study of temporal and spacial relationships of human understanding and even homage to a skyline or the horizon - but remaining on human scale spiritually speaking, because it's foremost the people I am preoccupied with.
It has been an almost lifelong worldwide spiritual, as well as physical itinerary since my art studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (former Czechoslovakia) and Rome, Italy, bringing me to the point of maturity I am at now. The more notable locations of my large, public work are cities of Prague, Bratislava, Kosice,(of former Czechslovakia), Vicenza (Italy), Hong Kong, Singapore, Aman (Jordan) Denver, CO ("I Have a Dream..." at the M.L. King Library in Aurora, CO, "Mile High" at the Chase Tower in Engelwood, CO, The Spirit of the Rockies" in Evergreen, CO, The Song of Two Rivers" at the Two Rivers Plaza in Grand Junction, CO and Just recently have installed a large sculpture of a violinist Nicolo Paganini in Anaheim, CA. Had solo and group exhibitions in most of the above cities and nave added Interlacken, Switzerland and Barcelona, Spain recently I was also invited and have participated in the "Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea" in Florence, Italy. All my works are installed under my close supervision and participation (no exceptions), regardless of the needed frequency of my presence and distance, be it the neighboring city or sometimes continents away. 2569 Diamondback Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80921 tel.:(719)481-3718 e-mail: Kst408@cs.com |
