LONDON.- Using London as his canvas, artist David Breuer-Weil has worked with Christie’s to place his monumental bronze sculptures throughout the city in an innovative new multi-venue exhibition that is free to the public.

Giant heads break through the ground at Cavendish Square and Portman Square. An evolutionary four-part installation emerges in Portman Square. The brutalist architecture of the Economist Plaza is enlivened by a sculpture titled Alien and figures of Brothers with joined heads, connected by umbilical chords. Against the backdrop of the Saint Pancras Church on the Euston Road further larger Alien and Brothers images reinterpret the iconic building famed for its Greek statuary.

Breuer-Weil comments Public sculpture is the ultimate street art. Far more people see them than works in museums. I have attempted to distil a great deal of emotion and meaning into simple sculptural forms that are dotted throughout London. Christie’s, who are hosting this unprecedented multi venue exhibition, has a very rich history in 20th century sculpture. My images of "Brothers" shows two related individuals with joined minds, it is an image that explores both conflict and resolution. In "Brothers 2" two people move away from one another but are still connected with powerful strands as they can never fully separate. My "Alien" sculptures deal with the status of the outsider in contemporary society whilst the massive heads “Visitor” and “Brainbox” express the great value of every individual. These themes of connectedness and belonging have never been of greater relevance than at the present time.

Londoners are familiar with Breuer-Weil’s work from past highly renowned installations in iconic locations such as Grosvenor Gardens and Marble Arch. A hallmark of his monumental works is the very physical nature of the pieces with their deliberately textured surfaces.

Along with Christie’s, the artist has worked with Westminster City Council on a number of these installations and the Breuer-Weil exhibition is being staged to coincide with Christie’s "Sculpture in the Square" that showcases pieces by Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Antony Caro and other leading sculptors.

David Breuer-Weil was born in London in 1965. He studied at Central Saint Martin’s School of Art and Clare College, Cambridge. His work frequently explores ideas of humanity, history and existence. Breuer-Weil is famed for his monumental solo shows of vast painted canvases referred to as the Projects. ‘The Project’ was held in 2001 at the Roundhouse, Camden; ‘Project 2’ was held at the Bargehouse, OXO Tower in 2003; ‘Project 3’ was then held in conjunction with the Ben Uri Gallery in 2007; and at the beginning of 2013 ‘Project 4’ was staged in The Vaults, Waterloo. Alongside the Projects Breuer-Weil continues to produce on a smaller scale works on paper, paintings and sculpture. Breuer-Weil has created monumental sculptures which have been displayed in London including Hanover Square and Grosvenor Gardens and around the world. Visitor, Visitor 2 and Alien were included in Sotheby’s 2010, 2011 and 2013 Beyond Limits exhibitions at Chatsworth House. Breuer-Weil lives and works in London.
