Richardo Angel Norte uses art to unify and elevate what is common to
humanity. Beginning with the figure, he adds elements of myth and
transcendence that empower his subjects' as heroic symbols of valor and
beauty. As a younger artist he was inspired by classical art in the
Smithsonian Institution. As an older art artists he melds his appreciation
of technical mastery with love of expression through abstraction. This mix
of representational sensibilities gives way to a broader conversation that
regards human existence as a spiritual and physical entity. "It is a world
between the spiritual and physical, a timeless place within our history as
humans" says Norte of the space in which he works. His bronze sculptures are
excellent examples of master craftsmanship. Inspired by Rodin and
Michelangelo, his technique exhibits a highly developed study of
craftsmanship and the figure. Trained at the Academy of Art College in San
Francisco.
