Sterett Gittings Kelsey

American Sculptor Kelsey was born in Greenwich Connecticut in 1941. Twenty three years later she graduated with a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in1964 and has worked nonstop at her craft ever since.

Kelsey works, primarily in bronze with sculptures ranging from three inches to twenty two feet in height. She is the leading sculptor of dance in the world today.

The Kelsey bronzes are owned by major collectors and connoisseurs of " Investment-level Fine Art ". These masterworks in bronze can be found in more than 300 public and private collections worldwide.

The Kelsey sculptures are hand-made from start to finish. The transformation from Kelsey's clay original, into a masterpiece in bronze, is a long and expensive process. A new ceramic mold is handmade for each sculpture. This mold is used only once.... then... it is destroyed in the casting process. There are about thirty five steps which each work passes through on the way to becoming a completed work of art.

Each sculpture bears: the copyright symbol: The artist's logo: the artist's name: date of origin: foundry mark; and the edition number.

Richard Polich, founder of the world's leading Fine Art Foundy: Polich-Tallix in Rock Tavern New York, has enjoyed a special 40 year relationship with the artist. Together they work as a team to produce the Kelsey Bronzes in the finest bronze available.

. As of January 2007, there are more than 278 finished original sculptures and counting. Currently Kelsey is creating a New National Icon in the form of a thirty foot high angel which celebrates America and the Men and Women who protect her.
