About the Item
Apollon III is an elegant figurative bronze sculpture by Nando Kallweit.
This captivating sculpture features an elegant, elongated figure seated gracefully. The figure, cast in bronze with a dark patina, embodies minimalism with its smooth, simplified form. It exudes a sense of poise and tranquility, evoking curiosity and introspection. One arm delicately leans back, supporting the figure, while the other reaches upward, effortlessly balancing a round, golden disc that suggests a celestial body. This disc introduces a striking contrast to the sculpture’s dark tones, inviting interpretations of balance, ambition, or celestial exploration. The intersection of simplicity and symbolism makes this piece a profound study in form and meaning, encouraging viewers to ponder its narrative and emotional depth. The juxtaposition of the figure’s fluid lines against the cube’s geometric precision enhances its visual impact, reinforcing the elegance of minimalistic art.
Apollon III was made using a lost wax, or Cire Perdue, bronze casting technique. Nando shapes a wax model that is then submerged in ceramic. The ceramic is then placed in a furnace so that the wax melts to leave a cavity. Molten bronze is then poured into the cavity. Once cooled and hardened the ceramic is broken to retrieve the sculpture. To create the rest of the edition Nando makes a silicon mould of the first piece allowing the wax model to be recreated.
Each piece is an edition of 25. Nando then hammers his mark into the base.

Nando Kallweit
Nando Kallweit is a German sculptor working in bronze and oak. As a young boy, he was inspired by the beauty and antiquity of a bust of Nefertiti housed in the Egyptian Museum of Berlin. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, his new-found freedoms allowed him to travel to Egypt and develop his belief in the basic strength and pride inherent in inhumanity. His sculptures seek to emphasize this through elongated forms and upright postures. He reduces the figures to simple gestures and movements creating sculptures with a wonderful interplay between the archaic and the modern; between art and design. Nando’s work has been exhibited across Europe and is held in many private collections. He has produced a number of large scale permanent installation pieces for German municipalities and museums.
