| Introduction Introduction |
Young people love adventure. Whether that turns out to be a good or bad thing depends on their talent and sensibilities. I believe the works of these two artists, who combine sculptural and expressive power in harmony with the plasticity of clay, will reach the realm of true art. I would be grateful if you would take a look.
