PIERRE DIAMANTOPOULO

Pierre Diamantopoulo is a self-taught, professional sculptor specializing in limited edition, figurative and animalier sculptures, cast in bronze by the traditional "lost wax" process. He came to sculpture obliquely, having no formal art training, and having spent much of his early working life in the world of words. Born in 1952 in Cairo, Egypt of a French mother and a Greek father, he came to England with his parents as refugees during the Suez Crisis. He graduated in from the University of Essex with a degree in literature and his first career was in corporate advertising as a copywriter.
He now makes one-off figurative pieces and installations, striving always to defy the earthbound limitations of clay. In his anamalier work he focuses on the physical articulation of creatures, whilst his figures are also allegorical. He often brings the two together in both ceramic original and limited edition bronze. He is currently exploring other media including fired clay, plaster and concrete.
He has exhibited work widely, including at the Royal Pavilion Contemporary Art Gallery, Brighton, Christies, Mappin & Webb, Harrods and Aspreys in London and the Tryon Gallery, Cork Street, London.
