''Dirk de Keyzer was born in Sleidinge, near Gand, in 1958.
He has traveled his own path in the world of sculpture for more than twenty years and has known the difficult first steps of all struggling artists, the hard work and the wait for recognition.Relentless,he has persevered with the conviction that he was born to sculpt. Sculpting is not a choice for Dirk de Keyzer, it is his true nature.The creating process remains his greatest challenge and the end result, his greatest satisfaction.Dirk de Keyzers bronze sculptures are cast using the lost wax process and are produced in series of 8 copies + 4 « épreuves d'artiste ».He sculpts mostly elegant, determined women, but also eccentric men.The shapes and figures he creates reflect reality and give us his personal interpretation of it while being respectful of a certain harmony and esthetic.Over the years, the work of Dirk de Keyzer has been influenced by the artists own unusual universe - both surreal and magical !''
