Kunstverket som vises på denne siden er beskyttet av opphavsretten, noe som betyr at vi ikke har juridisk tillatelse til å lage eller selge identiske reproduksjoner. Denne beskyttelsen håndheves i henhold til internasjonale avtaler som for eksempel Bernerkonvensjonen og av nasjonale lover, inkludert de som er fastsatt i Amerikansk lov om opphavsrett – Tittel 17.
Denne metoden er i fullt samsvar med opphavsrettslige regler, da den ikke innebærer kopiering eller duplisering av det beskyttede kunstverket. I stedet er det snakk om en kreativ nytolkning – et nytt maleri som er inspirert av originalen, men ikke identisk med den.

Skriv inn ønsket bredde og høyde for å tilpasse trykket til din ramme eller vegg. Et trykk kan kun beskjæres, aldri skaleres opp utover motivets opprinnelige størrelse, noe som betyr at et format med andre proporsjoner vil føre til tap av deler av bildet. Vi sender deg en digital mockup for godkjenning før vi starter trykkeprosessen. Bildet som vises på denne siden viser ikke den faktiske beskjæringen — det er kun mockuppen som viser dette.

Om kunstneren
The Hands of a Maker
Ron Mueck grew up surrounded by the textures of his family's business in Melbourne, Australia, where puppetry and doll-making were daily realities. This early familiarity with creating small, lifelike forms stayed with him long after he moved to the United Kingdom in 1986. Before turning to fine art, he spent years working as a model-maker for film and television. He was part of the creative world behind Jim Henson’s work, contributing his skills to projects like the character Ludo in the film Labyrinth and the series The Storyteller. These years were spent focusing on the minute details required to make something inanimate appear breathing and real.
In the mid-1990s, his focus shifted from the screen to the gallery. A commission in 1996 to create a small figure of Pinocchio for Paula Rego marked a transition into this new space. Soon after, he produced Dead Dad (1996–1997), a half-scale depiction of his recently deceased father. This work brought him attention during the 1997 Sensation exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. It was a piece built from memory and imagination, using the same precision learned in the world of special effects to explore a deeply private subject.
Scale and the Human Form
The work is defined by a specific way of handling size. Mueck does not stick to one scale; he moves between figures that are smaller than life-size, half-scale, and much larger than life. This manipulation changes how a viewer perceives the weight and vulnerability of the subject. In Boy (1999), a sculpture reaching five metres in height, the sheer mass of the figure creates a different physical presence than the small, huddled form of Crouching Boy in Mirror (1999–2002).
Each sculpture is a slow process. A single work can take months or even more than a year to complete. The technique relies on hyperrealism, where every crease of skin and anatomical detail is rendered with extreme fidelity. This level of detail is applied to subjects that touch on the cycle of life, from birth to death. Some works focus on:
- The intimacy of Spooning Couple (2005)
- The exposure found in In Bed (2005)
- The fragility of the elderly in Old Woman in Bed
- The heavy, larger-than-life presence of Mask II (2001–02)
A Presence in Museums
His sculptures have been placed in various collections across the globe. The Tate in London holds works like Mask III, while the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, has displayed his larger-than-life self-portraits. In Japan, Standing Woman (2007) is part of the permanent collection at the Towada Art Center. His exhibitions have traveled through places such as the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in Paris, the Mori Art Museum in Japan, and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul.
The impact of these works often comes from the tension between their realistic textures and their unexpected dimensions. By enlarging or shrinking the human body, the artist pulls private, quiet moments into a public view. The viewer is often left looking at a figure that feels both familiar and strangely detached, caught in a state of stillness that suggests unseen thoughts or feelings.
