Son of Hollywood actor Anthony Quinn, Lorenzo Quinn is an artist of exceptional talent who is recognised widely as one of the World’s greatest living sculptors.
He has produced commissioned work for the United Nations, the Government of Qatar and the Vatican – his work was blessed by the Pope in front of a crowd of 35,000.
His work also features in the collections of King Juan Carlos of Spain, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum (ruler of Dubai), Donald Trump, Sir Bernie Ecclestone, Sir Elton John, Lakshmi Mittal and Rudolph Guiliani.
Over the last 20 years, Quinn’s works have been exhibited internationally at prestigious venues such as the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg, Valencia’s Institute of Modern Art, the Italian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale and in Park Lane, London as part of the City of Westminster’s City of Sculpture Festival.
He is best known for powerful representations of human hands. Quinn describes the emotion behind the piece: “I wanted to sculpt what is considered the hardest and most technically challenging part of the human body. The hand holds so much power – the power to love, to hate, to create, to destroy.”
A huge 2.5-metre high edition of Lorenzo Quinn’s ‘Finding Love’ was commissioned and installed in front of the main entrance of One Hyde Park, London – heralded as most exclusive address in the world. This is your chance to own the more intimate version of this famous piece.
