Antone Bruinsma is a professional sculptor who has been creating meaningful sculptures for landscapes, urban spaces and private homes for over 25 years.

Signature sculptures for small and large residential and commercial developments will landmark your project and provide visual impact to attract people to your precinct.

Pieces are created individually for your space. Or you may find a sculpture that suits at Antone's sculpture park in the Gold Coast/Beaudesert hinterland region, located at the northern base of beautiful Tamborine Mountain. You can visit by appointment - the park is less than an hour's drive from Brisbane's CBD or 40 minutes from Surfers Paradise.

Antone is happy to take you on a guided tour through the park to view his sculptures. Allow at least 2 hours to enjoy your visit.

 

Penetration of the Wind re-located to Shanghai Sculpture Park
 
 

Antone's Sculpture, Penetration of the Wind, completed at a sculpture symposium in Guilin, China in 1998 was recently relocated to the Shanghai Sculpture Park(SSP), a newly developed sculpture park, which has been open to the public since May, 2005.

The park is surrounded by the Sheshan Mountains and encircling the Yue Hu Moon Lake, with more than 50 large scale sculptures set sensitively in 214 acres of magical surroundings. Yu Hu Museum of Art in the park is one of the best contemporary art museums in Shanghai.  Varied and changing exhibitions are organised there throughout the year.With the World Expo scheduled for 2010 in Shanghai, the SSP is sure to be a popular attraction for art lovers from around the world.

Sculpture Park seeks to establish an international reputation in the field of contemporary sculpture, through acquisition and exhibition of Sculpture.  The sculpture park is developing a collection of contemporary sculpture in conjunction with the Yu Hue Museum of Art, and providing an education service to the local community fostering a deeper understanding of the art of Sculpture in a contemporary setting.

Since 1997, more than 200 large sculptures have been created both in Guilin and Shanghai.  Some sculptures in Guilin, including Antone's sculpture, Penetration of the Wind, have been moved to SSP for a better display.

The Elements are Moving to a New Home - The Evandale Sculpture Walk, Gold Coast Arts Centre
 
In 1992-93, Antone created a four-piece sculptural installation at Main Beach, Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast, Australia. He was supported by local residents and overseas visitors, who helped to polish the sculptures or come back regularly to view the progress of the works. In 2004, readers of the Gold Coast Bulletin voted The Elements the most popular public art on the Gold Coast. These sculptures have been photographed by tens of thousands of visitors to the Gold Coast over the sixteen years that they have been in place. They are now being moved to make way for the Soul building development. We hope that the "Soul" development will arrange for equally popular pieces of public art near or at the development site. You will still be able to see The Elements at the Gold Coast Arts Centre sculpture walk.
