If you are (still) in town in the next two weeks, please come and see us. You don't want to miss these exhibitions. In this second major collaboration between Austin Art Projects and Hohmann Fine Art, for a limited time, we are presenting two of today's most outstanding contemporary glass artists: Toots Zynsky and Oben Abright.

After Christian Hohmann purchased the gallery building at Village Court from David Austin in 2018, an ongoing dialog formed between the two art dealers, which ultimately lead to a collaboration and combined exhibitions at the Village Court Gallery the following year. With a COVID-related pause in 2020, this year produced another world-class exhibition. 

"Soulmates" is on its way to becoming one of the most successful sculptures in jd hansen's recent history. It was released at the end of last year, but our clients didn't get to see it in person (thanks to COVID-19) until three weeks ago and already many have sold. We are now waiting for number 7 of 9 to become available and we're scheduled to pick it up from the foundry soon.

There is something very touching about this couple. Although they are back to back, both strong individuals living their lives, the tender moment of their hands touching lightly tells the story of a strong bond, "soul mates" at that. The new style that was introduced by jd hansen with "Fire" not too long ago is not just an esthetic departure from her previous style, it is also a thematic evolution. While most of her work is somewhat introverted, thoughtful, quiet, and about reflection and personal growth, these new sculptures touch on the ideals, the person we can become, the refined human being we strive to be. They are also more extroverted and forward than any of her sculptures before.

jd hansen is pushing the limits of bronze sculpture once again and it so happens that three sculptures that have been under development for the last year, are all coming out at almost the same time. "Das Spiel" (above) is scheduled to arrive in the gallery this coming week and "Soulmates" and "Ein Moment" have just arrived. We also received news from her studio about a substantial price increase that will go into effect on March 19th, due to increasing foundry costs.

This is the very last exemplar of jd hansen's recent sculpture "Resonance". We premiered this sculpture less than a year ago and it is now already sold out except this one remaining cast that we currently have at the gallery.
