Biography:

Esther Wertheimer's reputation travels beyond the borders of Canada and America to the international art world. Her remarkable skill in portraying movement in the human form is expressed in the graceful rhythmic flow of her dancing figures, the power and vitality of the bodies of her athletes, and in the tender, vital encounters between lovers and between mothers and children. Wertheimer's bronzes take on the vitality of the human spirit, expressing verve and optimism. Her multi- coloured patinas are selected carefully, giving her work a feeling of vivacity.'
