HAROLD LINKE-SCULPTOR
VISION
Create joy with great art.
I hope, 100 years from now, someone finds my sculpture and thinks,
“He saw the world as a wonderful place.”
IN A FEW WORDS
Energy and connection. Nothing good in society, community, art, music, sports or health exists without energy and connection. Likewise, every ill can be solved with more energy or more connection.
Energy and connection inspired my sculpture. My sculpture’s wispy, swirling, white transparency exists to connect us with something higher in our own spirit. Perhaps we seek bravery, justice, speed, teamwork or excellence. All require connection; all require energy. My work embodies both in joyful, iconic figures for our time. White represents light, goodness, innocence, safety and purity, in short, the color of perfection, inclusive of all colors. My white sculpture draws your attention immediately, a gift of energy and connection that can truly change our world. Harold has been a commercially successful sculptor for 30 years and has placed well over 1000 sculptures in public and private collections throughout the world,
