Strauss & Co Talk: Conversation with Nic Bladen about his art and career
Saturday, 11:00 to 14:00
19th August 2023

South African artist Nic Bladen, who was at school at Hoërskool Jan van Riebeeck in Cape Town, is known for his extraordinary, life-like botanical sculptures, which demonstrate the technique he pioneered of casting entire plants in bronze and sterling silver. Born in 1974 in Pretoria, Nic trained in the field of dental technology, a discipline that requires incredible precision and attention to detail.
Frank Kilbourn, chairperson of Strauss and Co and an art collector, will be in conversation with Nic at Welgemeend Manor House on Saturday 19 August 2023 to talk about Nic’s art and career as artist and jewellery designer.
