BATTLE GROUND, WASHINGTON, USA, August 30, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Mark Russo, CEO and Founder of Treasure Investments Corporation, successfully negotiated the acquisition and purchase of 322 master molds created by the World-Famous sculpture artist Loet Vanderveen. The purchase included not only all the master molds of Loet’s creations but all reproduction and marketing rights. Vanderveen bronze collections can be seen and purchased in over 24 high-end fine art gallery locations throughout the United States and several in Europe. “We are excited about casting some of Loet’s pieces in pure silver and also enlarging many of the works to live size and larger,” says Mark Russo.
Treasure Investments Corporation just took possession of the mold collection and has already begun casting pieces in bronze to resupply the demand from the existing gallery locations. Treasure Investments will look to expand the Vanderveen collections to its 95 gallery partners and beyond.
“We have never been more excited about this collection. Loet’s art bridges the world of realism and modern in his creations,” says Jason Dilling, President of Sales for Treasure Investments.
Loet Vanderveen was born in Rotterdam, Holland. His home was very close to the zoo where, during his early years, Loet spent a great deal of his time. During this period in life, he developed his love for animals. At night, listening to the sound of wild animals in the zoo, he would fantasize about safaris to Africa. Fantasies, which were eventually realized! Hours before the bombardment of Rotterdam, the Dutch army was ordered to destroy all of the dangerous species in the zoo. The animals were destroyed, as well as his home, and these events led Loet into a new phase in his life. He escaped from occupied Holland, and upon his arrival in England, he was decorated for valor by Queen Wilhelmina. He served in the RAF during the war. During the first eleven years following the war, he lived in Zurich, London, and New York working as a fashion designer. He was not satisfied with his profession and a meeting with Fong Chow, then curator of the Far Eastern Department of the Metropolitan Museum in New York, led to private ceramic studies with Fong for the next three years. He learned a great deal about Chinese glaze techniques and applying fine glazes to the correct forms. This knowledge eventually led to applying patinas to bronze animal forms. Loet Vanderveen sculpture designs are enhanced by a rich palette of subtle patinas offering uniquely stylized interpretations appreciated by distinguished worldwide collectors.
