About the Item
Kioo is a bronze sculpture by contemporary artist Jacques Owczarek, dimensions are 11 × 18 × 11 cm (4.3 × 7.1 × 4.3 in). The sculpture is signed and numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 8 editions + 4 artist’s proofs, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The sculpture is also available in other dimensions: 30 × 43 × 30 cm (11.8 × 16.9 × 11.8 in), 8 editions + 4 artist’s proofs.
The contours, edges, and curves give this bronze pig its form. The features of the animal are identifiable: its head, belly, and ears. However, the clarity of the shape, the sharpness of the lines, and the geometric aspect of the sculpture highlight the artist's unique interpretation. Enough details to make this pig a one-of-a-kind work full of feeling.
Jacques Owczarek has no formal education. He believes that he was truly born when he discovered sculpture at the age of 30. He works diligently and meticulously to create each piece, always striving for perfection. He never begins a piece with a preconceived notion of an animal; instead, everything comes together as he works on it.

Jacques Owczarek
Jacques Owczarek’s sculptures oscillate between figuration and abstraction, redefining the genre of animal sculpture. In his bronze bestiary, the artist favours purity of form, synthesising it in a distinct, highly original style. He allows himself to be guided by his intuitions, creating animals with dynamic, geometric lines that give an impression of movement to static matter. Jacques Owczarek has exhibited at some of the most prestigious international shows and fairs for almost 20 years. “For me, the animal is just a pretext, a pretext for shapes that will question, for volumes that will live, that will settle, that will take possession of the place, that will evolve in a direction that I will give them because they impose themselves on me.’’

The Champion
Located in Belfast, GB
The Champion by Ian Pollock is a large scale bronze sculpture from an edition of 3.
"I never limit myself to one subject or style of work and can never say where the work will go next, which makes it exciting for myself and I hope for the viewer. I like the fact that bronze is so permanent, a bronze sculpture is going to be around forever." - Pollock (2019)
Dublin born sculptor Ian Pollock is primarily a self-taught artist who has spent his career working in the Cast Foundry in the Liberties area of Dublin. Working exclusively in bronze, Pollock has worked with art ever since he was a young child. His work is a three dimensional diary of his daily existence. His bronzes are cast using a 'cire perdue' (lost wax) method in ceramic shell moulds. In the pursuit of excellence, he has compiled meticulous craftsmanship in the medium of bronze sculpture.
Inspiration for his sculptures comes from aspects of daily life, Pollock sees his work 'as a three dimensional diary' of his life; "I never limit myself to one subject or style of work and can never say where the work will go next, which makes it exciting for myself and I hope for the viewer. I like the fact that bronze is so permanent, a bronze sculpture is going to be around forever".
Pollock has exhibited and sold his work throughout Ireland and the UK; including the Oireachtas, RHA, and the RUA (where he won the Mullan Prize for sculpture in 2003).
Pollock's work can be found in the collections of the Office of Public Works and University College Dublin, as well as many private collections in Europe and the USA. Large commissions include an eleven foot flight of birds for Largy College in Clones, Co. Monaghan, along with many life size private commissions.
Pollock continues to exhibit with Gormleys Gallery...
