Details

Transforming discarded metal pieces into art, Armando Ramírez successfully captures the dynamism of a soccer match. Players collide as they vie for control of the ball. They run and slide with their thick wire limbs and spark plug bodies. Ramírez uses discarded pieces from a die machine to complete this admirable sculpture.

"sport fan of soccer"

I am going give this as a birthday present to my nephew who since a very young age played this sport and was even in a special soccer team and traveled to Germany among other places. He now lives in the U.S. but his love for soccer has become stronger. This is the fourth sculpture I have purchased from Armando Ramirez; they are in a special place at the home. (Two were for my husband, the cyclist and the photographer. His true passions. He has them on his desk and since he works from home (uses zoom) others see them and are amazed. He says thank you, Ramiro!.

"Love this artist!!"

We now have at least 4-5 pieces from Armando Ramirez. His talent is phenomenal! This was purchased for our youngest son to hang his car keys and Covid mask on,in his room. This was one of those gifts that is soooo hard to let go of and actually give away. I would love one of just about everything of Armando Ramirez ,we have his amazing deer sculpture that has a place for a votive candle and it is hands down my most favorite piece of art!! Highly recommend getting something from this amazing artist ! His small people sculptures have made charming gifts through the years but his larger work is absolutely exquisite!!!

"Clever auto part sculpture"

I bought one of these pediatricians for my nephew who is a pediatrician. He loves it and told me it is very cute. I also bought one for my personal doctor. She loves hers, too. Armando Ramirez is very creative--a true artisan.. I have bought several of his sculptures and have loved every one of them and so have the peopleI have given them to.. I turned the Barber sculpture into a Retinologist giving an eye injection. When I look at them, they do not seem like they are made out of scrap auto parts. All I see is a delightful showpiece.
