Jon Krawczyk   

 

Acclaimed young sculptor, Jon Krawczyk pushes the boundaries of his medium and transforms steel and bronze into a study of the human condition. He has been lauded for his ability to turn metal into biomorphic sculptures that seem to have a pulse all their own. Currently, he is embarking on the assemblage of an exhibition that creatively explores the various manifestations and symbolism of the cross.

Krawczyk draws inspiration from renowned artists, such as Picasso, Henry Moore and David Smith.  He is not only influenced by the obvious masterful techniques of these artists, but also by their philosophies of the sculptural process.

A graduate from Connecticut College, Krawczyk has studied fine art throughout Europe and apprenticed with various acclaimed sculptors. During the past 13 years, he has parlayed these life experiences into his artwork. Krawczyk’s sculptures have been exhibited in galleries and public arenas across the nation and are part of several private international collections.
