Hi!     My name is ZIGMUNDS BIELIS.    I'm a SCULPTOR.   My art moto EXPRESSION, ELEGANCE, EROTICA. I'm trying to create abiding works of art in abiding materials, primarily in BRONZE, and of vice versa - to tie up the magic of momentin ICE. I create my art pieces also in wood, stone, glass and various other more or less tradicional materials. I bring to life easel and monumental sculptures, realistic and abstract ones. But my main aim is to vindicate in art the beauty of body. I was born in 1954, in Riga. 1974 - finished Riga Applied Art School, the Wood carving Department. 1984 - graduated Latvia Academy of Arts, Sculpture Department. I live and work in Riga as a free lance artist. Since 1980 participation in juried exhibitions. Participated more than 80 exhibitions, including annual exhibitions - "Autumn", "Spring", "Art Days", and some exhibitions abroad as well as hold several solo - shows.
