About Gehard
Gehard Demetz was born in Bolzano, Italy, in 1972. Since his artistic debut in 2005 he has been internationally recognised for his excellence of craftsmanship and for applying traditional woodcarving technique to subjects that appeal to contemporary viewers.
His sculptures of children are intended to be at once attractive and disquieting, and are rendered with a precision that is by no means rhetorical or classical. One of the most startling technical features is his method of using small woodblocks. Finely polished pieces are juxtaposing with rough and sketchy surfaces. This construction and treatment render his sculptures unique in the contemporary wood sculpture market.
Demetz has been invited by prominent galleries to exhibit across the US and in Spain, Germany, and Korea. He has also produced monumental sculptures on commission for collectors around the world.
