Body Rythms
Date: 9/13/2010 - 11/15/2010
Location: Art Praha European Gallerie

Art Praha Galerie celebrates its Second Anniversary and features one of the most talented bronze sculptors in Florida, Linda H. King of Valparaiso. Unlike most artists, King came to her vocation relatively late in her life in a manner which seems to have been a series of fated coincidences. Born in Indiana in a town known as "Little Italy", little did she know that those early years of looking at statues of Italian motifs would have an impact on her life. She found sculpting her life's passion and now she faithfully follows the path of Bernini, Michelangelo, and Leonardo. The remarkable beauty of detail, finish and patina on the bronze pieces are consistently impressive. Her figures convey thoughts and emotions in the same way that a dancer portrays his mood with just a gesture or body language.
