Biography

Artan Shalsi was born in Berat, Albania in 1970. In 1997 he won the first prize of the annual competition “Kodra ‘97” held at Gallery Edward Lear (Berat Albania), where he also had his first solo show in 1999. His sculptures are made using contemporary materials such as stainless steel or aluminium. As a result of his classical formation, his works sum up the elegance of classicism and the cold vigour of contemporary minimalism.
