Biography:
Dame Elisabeth Frink was a British sculptor and graphic designer whose early work was inspired by Giacometti. In the 1960’s, her style became sleeker but kept its bizarre feeling. Her bronze statues were often of horses or male nudes. She also did a number of public commissions, portrait busts, prints, and drawings.
