Andrew Kasper

Andrew Kasper is an award-winning Melbourne based artist who specialises in corten steel sculpture. His work is intended to pass on a feeling of joy to the viewer and to convey feelings of peace and harmony, employing symbolism in an important role. Kasper has described his approach to the work as ‘the pursuit of excellence’ and professes to strive, simultaneously, for beauty and simplicity. His working studio and sculpture garden, Artfusion Gallery, located in Anderson (90 minutes from Melbourne), is open to the public and shared with his glass artist partner, Marlene Abela.

Kasper’s work is represented in corporate and private collections in Australia and the USA. His piece, ‘Tranquility’ has won two sculpture acquisition competitions, Tesselaar Exhibition First Prize in 2012 and Neerim Bower Acquisition in 2014.

I am a contemporary Victorian based artist who specialises in fabricated sculpture. I strive for beauty and simplicity in my work, symbolism also plays a major role.

I currently exhibit extensively in and around Melbourne and Sydney. My work is represented in many private and corporate collections in Australia and the USA.

Generally I would participate in 7 – 10 shows per year.
