Artist: Lorenzo Quinn (Italian)
Son of Hollywood actor Anthony Quinn, Lorenzo Quinn is an artist of exceptional talent who is recognised widely as one of the World's greatest living sculptors.
He has produced commissioned work for the United Nations, the Government of Qatar and the Vatican - his work was blessed by the Pope in front of a crowd of 35,000.
His work also features in the collections of King Juan Carlos of Spain, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum (ruler of Dubai), Donald Trump, Sir Bernie Ecclestone, Sir Elton John, Lakshmi Mittal and Rudolph Guiliani.

Title: Gravity Male
Year: 2013
Medium: Aluminium and Marble Sculpture
Dimensions: 41.5cm High x 34cm Wide x 12cm Deep
Edition: An original statue of an edition of 99
Condition: Excellent
Current Location: UK (Acquired Directly by ArtFair)
Description: A truly beautiful sculpture comprising male and female aluminium figures supported and framed by black marble.
Lorenzo Quinn describes the emotion behind the piece: "It is essential to find a balance in life. Many times that balance is achieved with the help of the people who surround us and hold us firmly to the ground and without whom we would float into perdition."
He adds, "It's good to know that your partner is always there for you, even when all around you everything else is shifting and spinning. Your partner is the unwavering centre of gravity."
Provenance: You will receive a certificate of authentication in the form of a metal plaque (separate from the statue) showing the edition number and Lorenzo Quinn's signature. Additionally, the sculpture has a Lorenzo Quinn signature and edition number very subtly inscribed onto the man's upper leg.
Opinion: A photograph simply cannot do this sculpture justice. Gravity Male is an exquisitely beautiful piece and as Lorenzo Quinn's hugely popular works are quickly being snapped up and therefore disappearing from the market fast, his art looks increasingly to be a outstanding investment.
