Book Description
Nick Legeros, a resident of Edina, Minnesota and owner of Blue Ribbon Bronze studio and foundry in Minneapolis, Minnesota is one of the country's most prolific, creative and sought-after bronze sculptors. He is one of the increasingly rare bronze artists who not only create the clay model but pour and finish the bronze as well. A celebrated teacher, he was a student of the late sculptor and teacher Paul Granlund and through him back to Auguste Rodin. Nick's figurative art is displayed in parks, in places of worship and cemeteries. It adorns hospitals, decorates libraries, colleges and the University of Minnesota. It provides grand entrances to service organizations, enlivens corporate lobbies and presents peaceful enhancement to apartment complexes and condominium gardens. From children and whimsical animals to winning athletic icons, from saints to monsignors to CEOs, his work stands for those beloved, those lost and great and good things imagined. He also creates pieces in collaboration with other artists including noted glass artists and muralists. Legeros is distinctive in his business model: to make a living as an artist, he works on commission for clients who seek to express the inexpressible. This biography of a beloved American artist working in the Midwest also instructs and inspires artists young and old.
