Dorri Buchholtz

Bronze Sculpture
Dorri Buchholtz is a sculptor living and working in Atlanta, Georgia. She discovered her true passion for sculpting later in life under the instruction of internationally known sculptor, Martin Dawe. What started as a hobby evolved into a full time career, a “second act” with no agenda, no pressure, and a tremendous amount of artistic freedom to explore and experience. Her work explores the full spectrum of emotion. Using posture and gesture, she captures the rawness and beauty of our shared human experiences from joy to suffering. Dorri finds inspiration in the empowerment of women and the subject of much of her work is the female form. Dorri is represented by both physical and online galleries in Atlanta, North Carolina, New York and Florence, Italy. She exhibits at juried art shows and her work can be found in private collections both nationally and internationally.
