Artist Statement:
William Eicholtz sculpture
brings the grand and heroic
themes of art into a
contemporary and post modern
culture. His campy theatrical
approach to figurative
sculpture spans from large
public commissions to
successful international
exhibitions. Both humorous and
erotic, the artist specializes
in the male figure. The
modeled and cast sculptures
are in fiberglass, bronze,
aluminium and concrete.
Traditional techniques team
with current art practice to
inform this unique artists
work....
