Who's the artist? - Culmor - 20 Nov 2014
Here's a statue in the Auckland Art Gallery. I'd love to know who the artist is.

At first I thought this was by Ron Mueck, but though he has done something similar (see the image) I'm now sure it's not him - the one you found is smooth and stylised - Mueck's work is more realistic and almost grotesque in comparison.

It's Michael Parekowhai
And the sculpture is named
"The Song of the Frog"

Great research! He also produced the very similar sculpture
...Gosh! We are all being very cultural today 😁😁

Thanks to you all. Very erudite 😁
Although what a woman in a leotard has to do with singing frogs is anyone's guess. That said, I suppose it's no business of a publicly funded gallery to provide art we can understand...
