Igor Mitoraj Bronze Sculptures
Mitorajaus bronzinės skulptūros — ko ieškau
I am a private collector based in Warsaw, Poland, actively seeking original bronze sculptures by Igor Mitoraj (1944–2014). I am interested in all editions, sizes and periods — from early table-top bronzes to monumental outdoor works.
Works of Particular Interest
- Asclépios — the winged healer, one of Mitoraj's most enduring subjects
- Perseus — helmeted, fragmented, commanding
- Tindaro — the cracked mask, icon of Mitoraj's aesthetic
- Eros Bendato — bandaged, serene, internationally recognised
- Ikaro Alato — the fallen Icarus, armless and wingless
- Centurione — the Roman soldier, large format preferred
- Any bronze with certificate of authenticity from Pietrasanta foundry
About Mitoraj Bronzes
Cast predominantly at the Fonderia Mariani in Pietrasanta, Tuscany — the same foundry used by Henry Moore and Fernando Botero — Mitoraj's bronzes are distinguished by their rich natural patinas, classical proportions and deliberate fragmentation. Editions typically range from 1 to 9 casts, with artist's proofs commanding premium prices at auction.
Authentication Note
Verify all Mitoraj bronzes through foundry documentation and certificate of authenticity. Primary casting houses include Fonderia d'Arte Battaglia (Italy) and Susse Fondeur (France). Examine patina consistency, signature placement on base, and edition numbering. Consult the Mitoraj estate archives or recognized specialists for questionable attributions before acquisition.
