Cirque du Soleil is presenting Richard MacDonald’s works for circus and performance artists in an exclusive, permanent, fine art gallery at Bellagio. The “O” Theatre lobby has been transformed to showcase over 50 bronze sculptures along with serigraphs and lithographs. The gallery is born out of a relationship between Guy Laliberté, Founder of Cirque du Soleil , and Richard MacDonald, a master of figurative sculpture.
MacDonald feels that he and Laliberté are “similar in life long creative goals.” His work focuses on the spectrum of performing life, capturing a fleeting moment in time and immortalizing the grace, strength, joy and discipline of dancers and acrobats. His work shares the creativity and imagination that fuels Cirque du Soleil and conveys MacDonald’s sense of energy and passion.
“The art of Richard MacDonald reveals the infinite beauty of the human body. The characters he creates are playing forever in the theatre of life,” says Laliberté.
