This is the smallest of three sculptures I created of 'Max'. Max was a gorilla that lived in the Johannesburg Zoo. As a youngster I used to visit him however the intelligence and sadness in his eyes always made me pack up and go home. This sculpture is a tribute to Max who at one point became a hero when a robber, running from police jumped into his enclosure. Max was shot in the encounter, was rushed into hospital and made a full recovery.

Brandon Borgelt is a self-taught contemporary sculptor from South Africa. He spent many years delving into his passion for nature and creativity in varied ways such as working at game reserves and filming nature documentaries. Finally in 2000, he started sculpting in bronze. 

When he took his first tentative steps with this medium, he found that kneading, pressing and forming the clay seemed to come naturally, and soon realized that this was the perfect way to channel creative energy. Using his hands to bring life to a three dimensional figure felt far more natural than trying to create an illusion of three dimensions on paper. Borgelt has merged his passions seamlessly to create brilliantly detailed bronze sculptures that capture the essence of his subject, which are African wildlife animals and nude.

Brandon Borgelt was born in 1966, in Johannesburg.
