Modern Bronze Figurine - Man With Lucky Koi - sign Martin Klein

With his contemporary bronze figurine Man With Lucky Koi, the artist Martin Klein takes a bit of Eastern tradition and transfers it into the field of contemporary art, creating a fascinating sculpture in the process. Particularly in Japan, the noble carp is viewed as a symbolic part of the country's cultural heritage. Several legends helped this particular animal become an important symbolic piece of Japanese mythology. For example, the Koi is often used as a symbol for determination and perseverance. Furthermore, the noble fish represents progress and worldly ambitions. The artist Martin Klein makes use of these associations and combines the traditional ideas with contemporary ideals of art in his modern motif of the Man With Lucky Koi. He uses the subtle green patina of the human bust in contrast to the symbolic noble carp, which accentuates the overall effect of this modern bronze with its intricate painting. This opulent bronze figurine is exclusively limited to twenty sculptures and signed by the artist.
