Mounted on black granite base, this expressive and beautiful bust in verdigris bronze can be appreciated from all angles. The art of Javier Marin offers a singular vision of the human spirit. If only one word in the English language described the work of artist Javier Marin, it would be audacious. His larger-than-life sculptures are bold, daring, brave, fearless, original, and without restriction or attachment. When you take in his art with your eyes, you see it with your body, feel it in your soul and you keep turning it over and over in your mind.
Javier Marin (Mexican, b. 1962), a world-famous Mexican artist was born in 1962 in Uruapan, Michoacán. He got his education through Academy of San Carlos and the National Autonomous University of Mexico.

In 2008, he was awarded with the Prize of the Third International Beijing Biennial in Beijing, China.
