About A Conversation

This enigmatic contemporary table top sculpture is by Canadian artist Doug Robinson. Two figurative shapes—one hand sculpted from creamy white Carrera marble; the other from gray Bardiglio marble appear to be having ‘a conversation.’ Robinson’s stone work favours organic, figurative, animistic and landscape forms—all inspired by the remarkably beautiful region of Italy that he lives in. As a young man, Robinson first came to Italy to train with master sculptors in the 1970s. Since then, he has worked in a studio nestled amidst olive groves next to the mountains where the famous Carrera marble is mined.

“Carrera white at its best holds huge detail. Think of Michelangelo.” Doug Robinson

Doug Robinson studied sculpture at the Ontario College of Art and Design, the University of Guelph and in Italy. His work—sculptures in limestone, travertine and marble have been exhibited in France, Germany, London, Montreal and Prince Edward County, Ontario.
