Working in bronze, stone and wood, Pavel brings a modernist style to a diverse range of subjects, capturing the essence of his subject in bold lines.
Pavel Barta was born in the Czech Republic. He worked as graphic designer and in a publishing house in Prague. During that time he started to consider an “escape” from computer art and became interested in “hand-made art”. He used wood, clay, paper, and metal to create miniature sculptures. Each miniature sculpture is original and unique as he does not use molds or patterns.
His first exhibition took place in Prague in 1996. and moved to Canada the following year. Here he became interested in using stone and bronze in his sculptures.
