I am offering a sculpture of the modern artist Georgi Chapkanov for sale. His sculpture “Icarus” is made of bronze in the year 1963/64 and measures 72 by 55 by 20 cm . Chapkanov’s work is inspired from the ancient Greek myth about Daedalus and Icarus, expressing the constant strive of human spirit toward freedom. There’s an expert evaluation for this work of art by the National Art Gallery committee chaired by B. Rangelova. Georgi Chapkanov is a co-creator of the coat of arms of the Republic of Bulgaria, creator of the monument of St. Sofia, the sculptural group of Petko and Pencho Slaveikov, Radoi Ralin’s monument and the statuette given at the “Askeer” theater awards and many more public procurements. Chapkanov has won the First prize of sculpture of the Union of Bulgarian Artists in 1977, 1979 and 1986. He has also been awarded the Grand Prize of Sculptural Portrait between 1969 and 1972, “The Golden Aesop” in 1965 and many more awards, including some in Italy, India and France. His works are currently on display at the St Petersburg Hermitage, the Museum of Pushkin in Moscow, the National Art Gallery, the Sofia City Art Gallery, the International Olympic Committee and quite a few other places.
