Detailed description
3D wall sculpture "City on wheels" (2016), aluminium
The spatial effect of his three-dimensional wall objects made of metal is enhanced by the play of light and shadow so that they practically "come to life". They are hand-painted by the artist and are unique pieces that, with their cheerfulness and optimism, set small monuments to the individual in modern urban space.
Gerstein's lovingly designed cyclists fill the streets and thus reclaim the city. Three-dimensional wall sculpture made of hand-painted aluminium in two superimposed layers. Limited edition 150 copies, numbered and signed by hand. Size 116 x 120 cm (h/w).

About David Gerstein
The Israeli artist David Gerstein (born in 1944 in Jerusalem) studied art in Paris and New York. He is one of the most important contemporary sculptors not only in his home country but is also an internationally established figure. Since 1972 he held numerous solo and group exhibitions internationally and is also working as a lecturer.
Fascinated by novelty as well as the unusual, he breaks with known norms and develops his very own signature style by combining the most diverse stylistic elements. Gerstein's works of art and three-dimensional metal objects are lively colourful fireworks of strong expressiveness that tell little stories – inspired by life. Unconventional and witty.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures made of wood, ivory, or stone are carved directly from the material block, in bronze casting, a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
