“Lion King” by Dorit Levinstein, from her "Animals" collection, is an original hand-painted bronze sculpture that serves as a metaphorical representation of courage and activism, as expressed by Levinstein. The sculpture embodies the lion's symbolic roar, an homage to individuals who raise their voices for social change and justice. Despite being depicted as a skinny lion, a choice that contrasts with the typical portrayal of lions as robust and powerful, this sculpture emphasizes the impact and significance of the roar, symbolizing how even seemingly small or unlikely sources can produce powerful and influential voices. Levinstein's use of vibrant colors and dynamic lines enhances the expressive nature of the lion, highlighting its majestic and assertive presence. "Lion King" is more than a depiction of an animal; it's an artistic statement on the power of voice and action, reflecting Levinstein's deep engagement with themes of social activism and the transformative power of individual expression.
Dorit Levinstein’s work invites you to step into her universe of forms, figures, and colors. Her spare, elegant sculptures seem to giggle with delight as if tickled and then stretch out with an exquisite elasticity to form their position in space. The sculptures derive their volume from a continuous virtuosic line alluding to human figures, animals, flowers, and objects. Each of the twirling figures is painted in vivid colors, creating rhythmic patterns that regularly repeat themselves like variations on a well-loved tune. Despite its apparent simplicity, the work is the result of a creative and sophisticated process. To master these lean and airy figures, one needs the skill and dexterity of a professional dancer who practices daily to perform the seemingly effortless pirouette. Levinstein’s work can be found in private collections worldwide and is exhibited in exclusive Fine Art galleries. Levinstein also creates commissioned works for indoor and outdoor settings and her monumental outdoor sculptures grace the landscape of many municipalities. EDEN Gallery has been Dorit Levinstein’s exclusive worldwide publisher since 1999.
