// I am a contemporary artist, archeometallurgist, founder, and independent scholar based in the UK. My particular approach to making sculpture and exploring the nature of materials is influenced by historic, archaeological, and scientific study. I have a fascination with bronze, combined with the capacity to cast my own work, allowing me to intercept the creative process at any stage. This enables me to take an artistic approach that is spontaneous, experimental, and highly focused. //
“Andrew's experiences as a sculptor and founder together with his curiosity about historic processes have positioned him to be that rare contributor who has elevated our understanding of Renaissance and later bronzes way beyond the theoretical.”
Jane Bassett, Senior Conservator of Decorative Arts, J. Paul Getty Museum, LA.
“I have learned more from working with Andrew than I ever could have relying on textual and archival sources alone. His skill as a sculptor, his feeling for his subject matter, and his deep investment in process truly brought Poussin’s studio practice to life.”Francesca Whitlum-Cooper, Acting Curator of Later Italian, Spanish and 17th-Century French Paintings, The National Gallery.
“Andrew Lacey’s sculpture expresses time as well as form. He works with a long reach backwards into prehistory and somehow, through human effort and a certain amount of more-than-human magic, makes the ancient world contemporary...”
Alice Oswald, poet.
