Gotthard sculptor and creative architect extraordinaire!
“The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that
little extra”

Charles was born in 1951 and qualified in architecture ceramics,
which has allowed him to get very involved with architectural ceramics,
which has allowed him to get very involved with architecture, one
of his passions! He enjoys designing with architects and some of
his biggest projects are:
“The
Trail” Arena Studio in the State theatre Pretoria 1981
“The
Musicians” the Contenary Hall Krugersdorp 1998
“The
Magic Flute of Mozart” the Civic Centre Rustenburg 1998
He enjoys teaching and has combined this with art therapy in which
he uses clay and music called “A Journey into self-discovery”
this enables the corporate pupils to completely forget themselves
and become childlike and play with clay and music, a very successful
way of bringing creativity into the corporate world. Charles also
loves designing for the private clients and has created several
interesting art pieces in this way from black amours to life-size
Friesian Horses; one of his latest commissions was painting a 55sq.m.
Dome with horse chariots and angels, a 12 seated glass table being
supported by 5 seated figures, his smaller series sculptures such
as the Tortoise Man, Man of Myth, Hoboseries etc. are fetching high
prices on the art market.
A tribute
to his creative genius is the beautiful Goblins Cove Restaurant
– the website speaks for itself and now his very latest project
called, La Provence D’Afrique, which is built inside his 400sq.m
studio, these are going to be accommodation with all the little
extra’s to turn it into something out of the ordinary; “Little
bit of provence in Africa”. With all his love for the old,
detail and architecture, this will be a dream come true.
With all these special venues a visit to the Gotthards in Magaliesburg
is an absolute must! Only 65km from Jhb.
By
appointment only.
