Mold Making, Bronze Casting, Modeling & Enlarging
Han Haacke's 14' tall Gift Horse was unveiled on the Fourth Plinth on March 5, 2015 in front of London's National Gallery in Trafalgar Square. Stratton Sculpture Studios was first contacted to model and cast the bronze maquette proposal. When Haacke received the award, Stratton Sculpture Studios designed and fabricated the steel armatures, created the clay model for the skeleton, and made the poured rubber molds on all the sections. Work was completed in less than six months.
