NICHOLAS MUKOMBERANWA

Nicholas Mukomberanwa developed one of the most distinctive sculpting styles in the world, marked by sharp angular lines and a deft blend of highly polished and raw stone surfaces. He combined a keen understanding of his traditional culture and contemporary western art. London's Arts Review journal once hailed Nicholas as the natural successor to Henry Moore. Nicholas exhibited internationally for more than 35 years, in London, Tokyo, Los Angeles, New York, Melbourne, at the Venice Biennale of 1990 and the Musée Rodin in Paris. His work stands in the collections of many of the world's top museums including the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
