Harley Valentine is one of the most popular and richest Sculptor who was born on November 4, 1983 in Ontario, Canada. Canadian contemporary artist Harley Valentine was born November 4, 1983 in Toronto, Ontario. Valentine is most well-known for his metal-plate, biomorphic sculptures. These sculptures draw on the formalism of mid century American sculptors like John McCraken and Alexander Calder. His sculptures are internationally recognized. The federal government of Canada commissioned him. He is currently completing a major statue commission, The Dream Ballet, for Sony Centre for Performing Arts Plaza. It is located in front Daniel Libeskind’s L Tower residence in Toronto, Ontario.

Valentine produced his first major public art project, The Dream Ballet. It was completed in 2013. Valentine said that being given this commission was a “career-defining project” for him.

In 2014, alongside architect David Binder, Valentine unveiled “The 30 Carabob Quartet”, which was the first outdoor sculpture park in Scarborough, Toronto, Ontario. The four sculptures of the series came from Valentine’s first large scale sculpture series The Barbarians. That series was first exhibited at The Campbell House museum in 2013.

Barbarians is a series of five colorful, abstract metal sculptures installed throughout the grounds of the historic Campbell House Museum in downtown Toronto. The show created a stark contrast between the Campbell’s 19th-century architecture and Valentine’s 21st-century sculptures. Inspired by the mythical creatures of ancient Greece, including the Minotaur and Cerberus, the exhibition “raised questions about the collapse and rebirth of civilizations; about creative destruction; and whether the new replaces the old, or the old is the hidden engine of the new.”

Valentine’s controversial sculpture The North Pole was unveiled at the De Luca Fine Arts gallery in February 2013. It plays on themes such as global warming and aboriginal art. Valentine cast in bronze a 100-year-old, seven-foot-tall narwhal’s tusk. He did so out of concern for the receding Arctic ice floes and the controversial decision to reappropriate an Aboriginal symbol.
