Description

Realistic acrylic painting of the Italian sculptor and former actor Lorenzo Quinn, painted by the Dutch fine artist Paul Meijering - the original painting is 90 x 120 cm and available for sale.

Lorenzo Quinn (Rome, May 7, 1966) is an Italian sculptor and former actor. He is the fifth son of actor Anthony Quinn.

Quinn was born in Rome, Italy, the son of Mexican-American actor Anthony Quinn and his wife Iolanda (nee Addolori). Quinn grew up in the United States and Italy and currently lives in Barcelona, Spain. Quinn began practicing art as a painter in the early 1980s when he enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in New York City.

Quinn acted professionally in the late 1980s, playing the young Italian violin maker Antonio Stradivari in the 1988 Italian film Stradivari, directed by Giacomo Battiato. Quinn's father Anthony starred in the same production as the adult Stradivari. Quinn then played Spanish surrealist artist Salvador Dalí in Dalí, alongside English actress Sarah Douglas who played his wife Gala. Quinn won the Best New Actor award at the Biarritz Film Festival for his work on Dalí.

In the early 2000s Quinn returned to art. In 2008 Evolution, an exhibition of Quinn’s work, was selected to inaugurate the new premises of Halcyon Gallery in Mayfair, London. The gallery published an exhibition catalogue on his work.

Equilibrium, an exhibition of Quinn’s sculptures, followed in November 2009, coinciding with the installation of Give and Take III in Berkeley Square for six months. Included in the show were several new sculptures, including "What Came First?" (male and female forms lying in egg-shaped hemispheres) and "Home Sweet Home" (a marble woman cocooned in barbed wire).

Quinn's Forces of Nature series of sculptures have been displayed in different locations around the world including England, Italy, the United States, Singapore and Monaco.
