New York, NY September 24, 2015 – Forum Gallery presents an exhibition of new sculpture by British artist Sean Henry. The pairs and groups of figures and groups are created in clay from life and drawings and then cast in bronze. Each work is then painted by the artist, giving them their own emphatic physicality.
Forum Gallery presented Sean Henry’s first U.S. exhibition in 2002, and has shown his work in group and solo shows ever since. The artist’s work is now exhibited regularly in Germany, Sweden, Greece, Norway and Holland, as well as in his native England.
In 2015 his newly commissioned portrait of Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web was introduced at the National Portrait Gallery in London.
