Rob van de Broek

In the approximately 35 years that I worked as a caster in bronze, I’ve seen a lot of works of art passing by. So, to make something totally new is actually impossible. But with my work I do try to distinguish from everything that I have already seen by experimenting with the cast bronze technology. First I make my sculptures completely in wax. After that I cut out parts of it, which create a new concept where the original form becomes the background form. Because I master cast bronze engineering I go to the brink of possibilities of its technology and freely experiment with it.
