Age of Bronze

Bio

Brett Davis was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1957. He graduated with honors from Toronto’s Central Technical School Special Fine Art Program in 1981 where he majored in sculpture, and won The K.A.Griffith Award and The Peter Haworth Award for Meritorious Achievement. He studied Classical Sculpture and Art History. Brett has been creating works in bronze for the past 30 years. His travels abroad have earned him an international reputation as a bronze sculptor, participating in many invitational international exhibitions and symposiums, and has numerous private and public works in Asia, United Kingdom, USA and Canada. Landscape & Garden Sculpture: With over 30 years of experience, Age of Bronze offers the design, manufacturing, installation and maintenance of custom and commissioned bronze works for exterior environments. For years, we have worked extensively with many prominent landscaping firms in the public and private sector, integrating site specific bronze sculptures and bronze water features into landscape designs. These pieces are designed to replicate nature, and harmonize with natural surroundings, and the built environment. Add a focal point by commissioning a water feature that replicates these natural sounds that evoke a therapeutic and relaxing environment for your patio, deck or garden. Restoration and Conservation: Age of Bronze offers a full spectrum of services in Restoration and Conservation, treating contemporary and historical bronze monuments, sculptures, and architectural features in the private and public sectors for cities, galleries, museums and prominent artists from home and abroad. These services are devised for both indoor and outdoor applications for non-ferrous metals, which include the sculpting, molding, casting and installation of missing or damaged components, structural repairs, general cleaning, maintenance and patina integration. Many of the outdoor bronzes have had decades of exposure to the environment without the intervention of treatment, inheriting the common green and black corrosion products, and any traces of an original patina have all but disappeared. In rare circumstances, there are minute traces of the original patina usually found on an underside or unexposed crevice area that may reveal an indication of patina colour. Research and development regarding the original patina and initial intent of the artist, are essential steps to restoring the artwork as close as possible to its initial colour. Patina Age of Bronze specializes in the research and development of patinas, formulated for historical and contemporary patina restoration for bronze sculptures and architectural features. Maintenance Maintenance is the key to preservation. Once the artwork has been treated, a maintenance program is recommended with regularly scheduled visits annually or biannually, depending on location and environmental conditions, particularly, artwork that is placed outdoors or near water. Each visit is documented, and any changes to the artwork are noted and then treated to help prevent and reduce surface corrosion and deal with any current issues that may be detrimental to the future of the artwork.
