Bentley Event Among the gloss and gleam of paint and chrome at Bentley Birmingham’s evening of luxury festive shopping, Dan Lane’s Modern Relics sculptures provided the perfect complement of traditional styling with modern engineering. All the more fitting given Dan’s engineering background. Albeit he felt at the time he was ‘designing the way of making something, rather than making something’, it gave him the skill set to invent the method of producing what you want as the end
result. It is one thing as an artist to be capable of visualising what you want to create, it is quite another to have the acumen to realise the idea into reality. That is Dan’s gift; he is a unique blend of vision and pragmatism, both the architect and builder of each piece. Dan’s sculptures were appreciated by all of the guests, and the Castle Fine Art team was delighted to have been invited by Bentley Birmingham to be part of such an enjoyable evening. We can safely say, it got Christmas off to a suitably stylish start!
