Pair of Marc Sijan (b. 1946) "Jogger Shoes" wall sculptures. Serbian American. This sculpted pair of hands/shoes by Hyper-Realist contemporary artist Sijan are cast from plater and includes one blue and one pink shoe. Both pieces are signed en verso and include wall hangers. Length of each shoe 14 inches.
Known for his hyper-realistic sculptures, Sijan works within the tradition of figurative sculpture, but uses a modern approach. His meticulous creative process begins with the construction of a plaster molds from a live model or objects and then using a magnifying glass to sculpt the interior of the mould in order to assure that each detail is super realistic and accurate.
Hyperrealism is a genre of painting and sculpture resembling a high-resolution photograph. Hyperrealism is considered an advancement of Photorealism by the methods used to create the resulting paintings or sculptures. Bruce Helander, the White House Fellow of the National Endowment for the Arts: “Hyperrealism came into vogue in the 1970s with the works of Duane Hanson and Carole Feuerman, whose recreations of everyday people were in a class of their own." Artist John De Andrea took the process a step further by recreating figures in their natural state. Today, sculptor Marc Sijan has become one of the most successful and innovative artists in the world. His work has brought hyper-illusion as another aesthetic component into modern figurative sculpture that is celebrated in museums and gallery exhibitions around the world. His work has won him recognition throughout the country, with over 50 one-man museum exhibitions worldwide, over half of which set all time attendance records. His work appears in permanent collections in over 30 international museums.
